Edmund White was a published, out gay writer long, long before it was cool to be one. He was a pioneer in many ways and about the only published, literary, accessible and modern gay writer I could pick up in the bookstore. He was someone I could relate to back in the day, and I remain loyal to my favorite writers for life. If you follow certain writers, then it becomes necessary to collect all their books in order to understand and assimilate them into your pantheon of voices. For me, along with Gore Vidal, Mary Renault, Patrick O' Brian, Stephen King, and Robert Heinlein, there is Edmund White.I get that some people won't like the book, because Edmund comes off as bitchy, gossipy and really lets his hair down in this book. If you want to learn about Edmund unfiltered, then this is the book for you. I don't really care about all that because I don't put writers on pedestals, and I already knew he was a human being and breathed and probably even farted from time to time. Ultimately though, Edmund the human being is appealing, a savvy literary insider, highly skilled in social engineering, who maneuvered himself into a lot of the right circles in the publishing and writing world, which explains to a great degree his success as a writer. Also, he flits from one idea to the next in a kind of stream of consciousness, a conversational style, as if he were sitting in the room smoking a mild and gentle joint of 1970's Colombian with you and telling you all about his life in New York in the 1960s and 1970s, unfiltered, just whatever pops into his head, and being as honest as he can without trying to put on a front. I like Edmund warts and all. If you like confessionals in the style of Rousseau, then this is very much in line with that.There's a lot in common between Edmund and his heterosexual counterpart from the 1660s, Samuel Pepys. Both were promiscuous, fun-loving, vain, pleasure-loving, friendly, socially savvy courtiers of the rich and powerful, although Pepys certainly took a different career path, being in the 1660s after all.I liked the book, but I think I am liking "My Years in Paris" a better overall. With all the sex Edmund had in New York, one would imagine the book would have a little heat, but it's as erotic as a cold fish, which is to say not at all. It's just matter-of-fact recordings of the famous or semi-famous he slept with, seldom divulging what acts were performed or by whom. Edmund gives sex short shrift. The only people who really write about sex in an interesting way probably don't have any.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.i am pleased to say i am now well into his later ...By Angela M. Aielloembarrassed to admit i've never read anything of mr. white before this book, i am pleased to say i am now well into his later memoir regarding his life in paris. when i am finished, i will work my way through his novels.what a beautifully written book, filled with enviable, at times hilarious and always fascinating portraits of the "culture vulture" denizens of 60's and 70's new york. mr. white captures the decades with an sophistication that is a welcome departure from the frivolous a la anthony hayden guest style trash i've been reading regarding this era. i had to keep my wikipedia handy to continually look up the intelligentsia and the infamous, relishing every page. i loved every minute and although i'm a little late to such rarefied company as white and friends, i look forward to learning more about mr. white and this very glamorous and thrilling crowd.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.Hot name-dropping gossip from the NY literary sceneBy WolfseggMuch of Ed White's recent output seems to consist of memoirs, literary criticism, and autobiography. This book weaves all three strands together in a melange that is sometimes amusing, but too often comes off as bitter score-settling. Yes, White paid his dues by spending years in grinding poverty while awaiting literary fame. Yes, he met and worked with some famous people. But Gary Indiana called this book "hilariously untrue," and White DOES have quite a selective memory when it come to assembling his almost Dickensian tale of life in the Big City. Truth be told, a lot of what he says here, particularly his love/hate relationship with Susan Sontag, has been explored in his other writings. White peppers his book with annecdotes about the rich and famous, many of which are highly indiscreet (here he may be taking a cue from another gossipy New York society writer, Truman Capote). But after a while, White's account of being a witness to history wears thin. His acerbic tone grows tiresome, and his obsession with getting even with everyone in the academic world who ever crossed him just isn't very interesting to people outside of NY academia. He finally brings down the curtain by comparing New York to a theater in a constant state of refurbishment: always looking for the next big thing, and a little bit the worse for wear by the time it arrives. The same could be said of White's literary output; as the years go by, his literary publications grow more sporadic and less artful, and he is reduced to peddling society gossip and recounting his dubious sexual adventures.See all 60 customer reviews...
