Omschrijving:
By turns hilarious and heartbreaking Armistead Maupins bestselling Tales of the City novelsthe fourth fifth and sixth of which are collected in this second omnibus volumestand as an incomparable blend of great storytelling and incisive social commentary on American culture from the seventies through the first two decades of the new millennium.
Tearing through the tales one after the other as I did allows instant gratification it also lets you appreciate how masterfully theyre constructed. No matter what Maupin writes next he can look back on the rare achievement of having built a little world and made it run. Walter Kendrick Village Voice Literary Supplement
Armistead Maupins uproarious and moving Tales of the City novels have earned a unique niche in American literature and are considered indelible documents of cultural change from the seventies through the first two decades of the new millennium. The nine classic comedies some of which originally appeared as serials in San Francisco newspapers won Maupin critical acclaim around the world and enthralled legions of devoted fans.
Back to Barbary Lane comprises the second omnibus of the seriesBabycakes 1984 Significant Others 1987 and Sure of You 1989continuing the saga of the tenants past and present of Mrs. Madrigals beloved apartment house on Russian Hill. While the first trilogy celebrated the carefree excesses of the seventies this volume tracks its hapless all-too-human cast across the eightiesa decade troubled by plague deceit and overweening ambition.
Like its companion volumes 28 Barbary Lane and Goodbye Barbary Lane Back to Barbary Lane is distinguished by what The Guardian of London has called some of the sharpest and most speakable dialogue you are ever likely to read.
