Description:


* Edmund White - Collected Novels, Memoirs and Nonfiction (35 books)

EDMUND WHITE (b. 1940)
is is an American novelist, memoirist, playwright, biographer and an essayist whose critically acclaimed work focuses on male homosexual society in America. His studies of evolving attitudes toward homosexuality and of the impact of HIV/AIDS on homosexual communities in the U.S. were significant contributions to contemporary sociological and social history.

White's first published novel, FORGETTING ELENA (1973), is a biting satire that uses the perspective of an innocent young man to reveal the intricate manners and rituals of homosexual life on Fire Island, New York. That effort and its successors established White as among the foremost voices in gay fiction. The elegiac NOCTURNES FOR THE KING OF NAPLES (1978) recalls an affair after the elder of the two lovers has died. After receiving a Guggenheim fellowship, White moved to Paris in 1983 where he remained until 1990 and frequently returned thereafter. He discovered that he was HIV-positive in 1985 and became one of the few public figures who became infected with the disease to speak openly about the diagnosis.

That year, signifying his intent to survive the disease and continue working, he issued the bizarrely comic CARACOLE , about the bacchanalian escapades of the denizens of an imagined city. Some of White's short fiction was collected as SKINNED ALIVE (1995), in which he related tales of homosexual love, thwarted and requited, in the coruscating prose that was his trademark. With the publication of the novel THE FAREWELL SYMPHONY (1997), he completed an autobiographical trilogy that includes A BOY'S OWN STORY (1982) and THE BEAUTIFUL ROOM IS EMPTY (1988). THE MARRIED MAN (2000) draws upon White's own romantic experience in its tale of an older HIV-positive furniture expert and his love affair with a younger man who ultimately dies of AIDS. FANNY: A FICTION (2003) is a historical novel about feminist Frances Wright and novelist Frances Trollope (mother of Anthony Trollope). White also wrote several plays, notably TERRE HAUTE (2006), about an imagined encounter between characters based on Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh and writer Gore Vidal.

His nonfiction efforts include the seminal sex manual THE JOY OF GAY SEX (1977; with Charles Silverstein). STATES OF DESIRE: TRAVELS IN GAY AMERICA (1980, revised 2014) is a travelogue that investigates gay culture in cities across the United States. White paid homage to his adopted city of Paris in OUR PARIS: SKETCHES FROM MEMORY (1994), a collaboration with his lover, illustrator Hubert Sorin, and in THE FLÂNEUR: A STROLL THROUGH THE PARADOXES OF PARIS (2001), a meditation on the city's character with digressions on some of its more-obscure attractions. ARTS AND LETTERS (2004) collected some of White's writings on and interviews with a range of cultural figures.

White wrote the biographies GENET (1993), MARCEL PROUST (1998), and RIMBAUD: THE DOUBLE LIFE OF A REBEL (2008). Selections of his essays and reviews were published as THE BURNING LIBRARY: ESSAYS ON ART, POLITICS AND SEXUALITY 1969–1993 (1994). Among his memoirs are MY LIVES (2005), CITY BOY: MY LIFE IN NEW YORK DURING THE 1960s and '70s (2009), INSIDE A PEARL: MY YEARS IN PARIS (2014), and THE UNPUNISHED VICE: A LIFE OF READING (2018), a collection of essays.
