The Great Heart Bank Robbery

The streets of New York City, 1962, Greenwich Village. We are introduced to Timmy: “a tall, good looking girl” who is cruising the gay section of the Village (before Stonewall) where the gay kids assemble from: “All over Manhattan, the boroughs. They came over from Jersey, to hang out in the streets.” Timmy is a waitress, a butch sort. A confused 18 year old. A nice kid amid the good kids & street tramps -- We cry back and forth to each other; birds in some haven arrived to this migratory place. Some still in flight. Some undecided. Cry like kites. “Hello! Hello There!” Passing along, cruising. Then the scene is moved along by: “MISS MARY!” Cries, squeals of gay boys with peroxide hair, at the sight of ‘her’ blue uniform; “ALONG COMES MARY!” A gay memoir at its finest! You will love reading this historical book & all the adventures in it.
