"The ersatz, provincial, 'post 9/11' New York is a holiday camp for university students and a pied-a-terre for Chinese billionaires, a place any young painter, writer, or musician would be wise to avoid, since it's no longer possible to live there on slender means." Also lots of Susan Sontag talk, and many variations on the word "pingas.
Gary Indiana has written seven novels (including Rent Boy and Horse Crazy) and as many non-fiction works over the decades, but this is his first memoir. It ranges over his life in a free-wheeling, non-chronological manner and concentrates on two main periods: as a young man in late-1960s California, where he became entangled with Ferd, a porno film-maker and his home-away from home in Cuba, where he has lived on and off for 15 years.
