A CLASSIC OF LGBTQ LITERATURE THAT HAS BECOME A CULT
SENSATION!
San Francisco, late 1970s.
At 28 Barbary
Lane, Anna Madrigal runs a boarding house. She welcomes people who have nowhere
else to go: the misfits. This matriarch is known for her unending kindness and
her superb marijuana crop.
Enter Mary Ann Singleton, a prudish, naive,
young woman who escaped her dull Ohio hometown for San Francisco. She settles in
with her other fellow tenants: Michael "Mouse," a personable young
gay man, Brian Hawkins, an incorrigible Don Juan, and Mona Ramsey, a young
hippyish bisexual.
Little does the group know that they will soon
form a dear family together. This is the beginning of a humorous, heartfelt
saga, between the summer of love and the appearance of AIDS, in the city of
sexual freedom!
THE HEROES OF THIS
ENCHANTING GROUP HAVE BEEN ENJOYED BY MILLIONS OF READERS WORLDWIDE! The novels
have been translated into 10 languages and sold over 6 million copies. The title
has been adapted on TV (BBC), Limited Series (Netflix), Theater...and now in
graphic novel form for the first time.
