Just as good as the first - a must read for any San Franciscan.
J'ai lu les fameuses et sympathiques Chroniques de San Francisco d'Armistead Maupin quand j'étais encore un jeune adulte, et j'avais pris énormément de plaisir à les lire. Je les recommande à tous les lecteurs qui aiment rire et être ému par un livre !
