SUMMARY

"Because of the speaker's final realization of the impossibility of ever finding a ground for satisfaction, a home, this book is more than a chronicle of sorrow and regret. It becomes, rather, a true elegy in which sorrow and self-knowledge combine and transform into a higher form of insight. This higher insight is the artistic intuition of the mortality of human things and ways.Edmund White is the author of 'Nocturnes for the King of Naples', published 1988 under ISBN 9780312022631 and ISBN 0312022638.
