At last Armistead Maupin returns to one of his most beloved characters from The Tales of the City series. I don’t know anyone who picked up the first in that series and didn’t immediately have to read all the other ones in quick succession! Although this isn’t the next in that series it is about Michael Tolliver 20 years after we last saw him and there are plenty of characters from the old days to get that warm familiar feeling back. Saying that you don’t have to have read Tales of the City to thoroughly enjoy this book.
Inspiration for the Netflix Limited Series, Tales of the City
The seventh novel in the beloved Tales of the City series, Armistead Maupin's best-selling San Francisco saga.
Nearly two decades after ending his groundbreaking Tales of the City saga of San Francisco life, Armistead Maupin revisits his all-too-human hero Michael Tolliver--the fifty-five-year-old sweet-spirited gardener and survivor of the plague that took so many of his friends and lovers--for a single day at once mundane and extraordinary... and filled with the everyday miracles of living.
