Alvin Orloff Books

Alvin Orloff, whose early work began with the San Francisco punk scene, returned to his passion for writing after years exploring avant-garde theater and performance art. His memoir chronicles a coming-of-age journey within the queer underground, a period where youthful exuberance starkly contrasted with the realities of homophobia and the AIDS epidemic. Orloff masterfully blends humor and heartbreak, offering a raw and poignant depiction of resilience and self-discovery during a tumultuous era.
