description: TALES OF THE CITY is the first novel in a series of novels written by American author Armistead Maupin from 1978 to 2014, depicting the life of a group of friends in San Francisco, many of whom are LGBT. The story begins in San Francisco in 1976. A naïve young secretary, fresh out of Cleveland, tumbles headlong into a brave new world of laundromat Lotharios, pot-growing landladies, cut throat debutantes, and Jockey Shorts dance contests. The saga that ensues is manic, romantic, tawdry, touching, and outrageous—unmistakably the handiwork of Armistead Maupin. This set includes the first six (6) 1) Tales of the City (1976), 2) More Tales of the City (1980), 3) Further Tales of the City (1982), 4) Babycakes (1984), 5) Significant Others (1987), and 6) Sure of You (1989).
