“I know I can’t tell you what it’s like to be gay. But I can tell you what it’s not. It’s not hiding behind words, Mama. Like family and decency and Christianity.” — Armistead Maupin
Happy Birthday to Armistead Maupin!
13 March 1944

Couverture du livre Mona et son manoir de Armistead Maupin
Un couple d’américains en vacances en Angleterre, une propriétaire de château au caractère bien trempé… c’est très drôle, mais pas seulement, car les aventures de Mona & Co se déroulent sur fond d’épidémie du SIDA.
Fort et doux, formidable.

Sat in the hotel bar, half people watching, half reading a book. I'm forcing myself to get back into reading, as doom scrolling has preoccupied me.
I chose the right one to start with. This is magical. #ArmisteadMaupin has got me hooked. I'm almost a third of my way through it already.

Book cover for 'logical family' by armistead maupin
'Sooner or later, we have to venture beyond our biological family to find our logical one, the one that actually makes sense for us. We have to, if we are to live without squandering our lives.'

If you've been rejected and need some Mum/Nanna energy and support, I'm here.

#TheDaysOfAnnaMadrigal is probably my favourite #TalesOfTheCity book by the brilliant #ArmisteadMaupin. I miss everyone of those characters when I'm not reading about them.
#GreatBookToRead
“Sooner or later, though, no matter where in the world we live, we must join the diaspora, venturing beyond our biological family to find our logical one, the one that actually makes sense for us. We have to, if we are to live without squandering our lives.”
Happy Birthday #ArmisteadMaupin
