We Must Love One Another Or Die: The Life and Legacies of Larry Kramer

About this book

Twenty-three writers join together to explore the life and work of Larry Kramer pioneer AIDS activist and acclaimed author of The Normal Heart and Faggots in this original collection. The Academy Award-nominated screenwriter producer novelist playwright and co-founder of GMHC and founder of ACT-UP is one of the few visible gay role models we have for young people today. This unique volume focuses on Kramer as activist writer and personality. A controversial figure in the worlds of activism and letters Kramer embodies the phrase "the personal is political." This collection proves the impossibility of separating the activist from the writer and why perceptions of Kramer run from genius to provocateur.
