In »Bodies and Souls«, Rechy paints a portrait of modern Los Angeles, »the most spiritual and physical of cities«, where we meet characters like Amber, a female porn superstar; Manny Gomez, a Chicano caught up in the punk-rock scene; and Dave Clinton, an aging male stripper. Epic in scope and vision, »Bodies and Souls« is classic Rechy.

Black Swan - Tales of the City 1
San Francisco, 1976. A naïve young secretary, fresh out of Cleveland, tumbles headlong into a brave new world of laundromat Lotharios, pot-growing landladies, cut throat debutantes, and Jockey Shorts dance contests. The saga that ensues is manic, romantic, tawdry, touching, and outrageous - unmistakably the handiwork of Armistead Maupin.
