About this book
Benjamin Heim Shepard brings together personal accounts of life in San Francisco before and during the AIDS epidemic. Memories of gay liberation, illness, grief, friendship and community organising trace the ways people responded to a devastating crisis. The interviews place individual experience at the centre of a wider history of activism, care and the struggle for dignity.

A: Each book is individually priced based on its current market value, condition, and availability. Most of our books are collectable, vintage, many are hard to find in the 'wild'. We use actual 'sold' prices as a benchmark (Trademe, Ebay & Dunbar Slone) We try to price below market average to encourage people to start to resell books as a side hustle!
