Cures - A Gay Man's Odyssey, Tenth Anniversary Edition (Paperback, 10 Anniversary Ed)

This is the 10th anniversary edition of Cures, Martin Duberman's bestselling account of his attempts to cure himself of his homosexuality through therapy, medical treatments and faith healers. Duberman tells of the double life he led as a young professor at Princeton, passing as straight by day and going into the gay clubs of Trenton and New York by night, which continued through the 1950s and into the 1970s, until he came out as a gay man around the time of Stonewall. For the new edition, Duberman has written a new preface chapter and an afterword, bringing his life (and, more broadly, the gay experience in America today) up to date, discussing such issues as gay rights, same-sex marriage, gay scholarship and AIDS.
