The American People Series

In The American People, Larry Kramer, the Tony Award-winning playwright of The Normal Heart and pioneering AIDS activist, tells an alternate history of America in this satirical and subversive two-volume novel, tackling the hatred and bigotry that have plagued the nation from its very beginning while also celebrating the resilience of kindness and courage found in its citizens.

“[Larry Kramer’s] magnum opus…One will also find oneself laughing out loud, thinking hard, and being thrilled that someone has taken on American history from the viewpoint of gay people…a roller coaster of a book.”—The Advocate (on The American People, Volume 1: Search for My Heart)
