How to be gay

Many guide books have been written for gay men—whether they are about sex, family or lifestyle. But how does one manage to be gay with poise and confidence? If anyone has the answer to this question, it’s probably David Leddick: He has been a selfconfident gay man for some decades now. He was friends with Quentin Crisp, and he was a chorus dancer for Maria Callas. And still today, Leddick is some kind of an ambassador of gay life. How to Be Gay is wise and witty—and none of the essential questions remains unanswered.
