About this listen

For more than three decades Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City has blazed its own trail through popular culture...from a groundbreaking newspaper serial, to a classic novel, to a television event that entranced millions around the world. The first of six novels about the denizens of the mythic apartment house at 28 Barbary Lane, Tales of the City is both a sparkling comedy of manners and an indelible portrait of an era that changed forever the way we live.

Enjoyable, if somewhat dated stories of San Francisco about 30 year ago. Wonderful narration by Frances McDormand. 7 hours of escapist fun.

Great stories!
