“A marvelous memoir. Vidal is as gossipy and acidic as his fans could hope for, but there are frequent moments of poignancy as well. Few authors come as well connected as Mr. Vidal, and there's no doubt that he was the ultimate insider, gliding observantly between the halls of power in Washington to the Greenwich Village bohemia of the post-war era to the swimming pools of Beverly Hills. It all makes for riveting reading, a sort of modern day "Vanity Fair."”
