Description

Tail in Two Cities takes you on a raunchy ride back through the 80s and 90s when HIV/AIDS was still considered a death sentence. Tail in Two Cities starts in New York in 1985 when the City was in shock as the disease snaked its way through the gay community felling thousands. Just off the plane from Florida at age 21, the author finds that the disease has sent gay life in New York City underground where he is determined to get what he moved there for. In 1988 Gilmore relocates to San Francisco where he becomes a safe sex warrior until AIDS finally hits home, changing his life forever. The book is at times shocking, sexy, irreverent, hilarious, and poignant, as the author comes of age amid the AIDS pandemic. * * * "Those of us of a certain age remember the 80s, when losing one's virginity could equal losing one's life. It was a time too few gay men remember because so many did not survive. Fortunately, David Gilmore managed to survive and to thrive as a masterful storyteller who transports us to a world of condoms, AIDS cocktails, love, and death, all shared in heartbreaking detail by someone who was there and lived to tell about it."-- Scott Simmons, Editor of Florida Weekly, Palm Beach County Edition. * * * "Everything I ever wanted to know about gay sex in the time of AIDS but was too polite to ask. Covering 15 years in New York and San Francisco, Gilmore's memoir offers a factual, fascinating, funny account of lots of sex acts with lots of partners, and a soft-focus panoramic view of his own heart. 'Who. . . .goes to an orgy looking for a boyfriend?' Shocking tenderness plus explicit emotions equal a rare innocence. A heart-breaking, heartening read. "-- Gillian Kendall, editor of Something Good to Declare: Good Lesbian Travel Writing. www.GillianKendall.org.
