The Loves of My Life

In his final memoir, White reflects on his sex life. The novelist and essayist known as a pioneering figure of LGBTQ+ literature, who died in 2025 at age 85, tells the tales of his passionate loves, relationships lost, and everything in between that served as inspiration for much of his writing. In this strikingly honest memoir, White’s ability to write beautifully about his numerous rendezvous, though derived from his personal experiences, stands out as a revolutionary account of several decades of queer history. The Loves of My Life (Bloomsbury Publishing) is a love letter to the joys of intimacy alongside the movement for LGBTQ+ rights.
