Description and Table of Contents
Description
Neil Miller set out to travel across the world looking for gay life. How much had changed since the 1970s and how much was still the same? In this book he recounts his travels on a journey that took him from Bangkok to Buenos Aires, from Prague to Kyoto and from Soweto to the Australian outback. Along the way he recorded the voices and diverse experiences of the gay men and lesbians he met - and discovered some startling contrasts between cultures.
