Tales Of The City, by Armistead Maupin

You know, I have heard so much about these stories over the years, and the miniseries and all, I'm surprised I'm only just getting to them. I just read or heard something about the recent "update," so I thought I would check it out, starting at the beginning.

It was a fun book to read, and really quick. I was surprised at how elementary the prose was, for all the love given to it. It read a little like a time capsule; even the language was really time-specific, but familiar enough that it was kind of fun. Pretty basic stories, and simple characters, but still engaging.
