04.01: Mattilda Bernstein Sycamore
2013-03-15 00:36:39| Powells Books Events Calendar
The End of San Francisco (City Lights) breaks apart the conventions of memoir to reveal the passions and perils of a life that refuses to conform to the rules of straight or gay normalcy. A budding queer activist escapes to San Francisco, in search of a world more politically charged, sexually saturated, and ethically consistent — this is the person who evolves into Mattilda Bernstein Sycamore, infamous radical queer troublemaker, organizer, agitator, community builder, and anti-assimilationist commentator. Part memoir, part social history, and part elegy, The End of San Francisco explores and explodes the dream of a radical queer community and the mythical city that was supposed to nurture it.
