Mary Ann Singleton returns to San Francisco a very different person from when she left.

Description

The eighth novel in the beloved Tales of the City series, Armistead Maupin’s best-selling San Francisco saga.

‘Perhaps the most sublime piece of popular literature America has ever produced’ Salon
____________________

A touching portrait of friendship, family, and fresh starts, the City by the Bay welcomes back Mary Ann Singleton, the beloved Tales of the City heroine who started it all. A new chapter begins in the lives of both Mary Ann and Michael ‘Mouse’ Tolliver when she returns to San Francisco to rejoin her oldest friend after years in New York City? the reunion that fans of Maupin’s beloved Tales of the City series have been awaiting for years.

Hurdling barriers both social and sexual, Maupin leads the eccentric tenants of Barbary Lane through heartbreak and triumph, through nail-biting terrors and gleeful coincidences in a sexually-liberated San Francisco. The result is a glittering and addictive comedy of manners that continues to beguile new generations of readers.
