PERFORMANCE ANXIETY
THE HEADLONG ADOLESCENCE OF A MID-CENTURY KID
Jonathan Lerner's just-published memoir of (gay) sex, (radical) politics, rock-and-roll, and looming adulthood in the years just before all hell broke loose in the multiple upheavals we now call "the sixties."
"Lerner uses an uncanny memory of things past plus relentless insight to reconstruct a mid-century America brimming with confidence, haunted by the ghosts of racism, and poised for big change. Performance Anxiety is smart, moving, tender, funny, tense, and deeply resonant."
JEREMY VARON, co-editor, The Sixties: A Journal of History, Politics, and Culture
reviewed in No Man Is an Island
"An Elegaic Tale
of the Cold War Past in Taiwan"
"...it is primarily in worldbuilding that the novel stands out. The world that Lerner summons up is remarkable precisely because he manages to make it feel so spectral and real at the same time."
