Summary

Gay marriage is at the forefront of America's political battles. The human story at the center of this debate is told in Double Life: A Love Story, a dual memoir by a gay male couple in a 50-plus-year relationship. With high profiles in the entertainment, advertising and art communities, the authors offer a virtual timeline of how gay relationships have gained acceptance in the last half-century. At the same time, they share inside stories from film, television and media featuring the likes of Marlon Brando, Katharine Hepburn, Rock Hudson, Barbra Streisand, Laurence Olivier, Truman Capote, Bette Davis, Robert Redford, Lee Radziwill, and Frances Lear.

Love warts and all

A charming memoir from two creative men who shared their lives through the highs and lows of life. Ethan Sawyer the narrator, does a good job of projecting each of the two mens point of view, although, for me I found I taxing to keep track of which of the pair was recounting what. perhaps a second performer would have made the division clearer.

This book is great - it's far better than Ambien.

This book book will put you to sleep faster than a sleeping pill, and it's far far less addictive.
