Robert Plunket recommends

Tramps Like Us (2001)
Joe Westmoreland
"The journey queer people must take to understand the odd hand that fate has dealt them is one of the great dramas of our time and Joe Westmoreland's trip is one of the best I've ever come across. For younger gay people it's a first hand look at our culture being formed. For older queers it's a heart-breaker. I was crying by the end but strangely proud of my own life and struggle. This is a very important book."

At Home with the Glynns (1995)
Eric Kraft
"A real delight. Peter Leroy's world shines through just like childhood itself: both tiny and enormous, full of mystery and wonder."
