Description: "Ned Rorem, one of America's greatest living composers, continues one of the most sustained efforts ever undertaken in the intimate journal form. The chronicle offers candid insights into his life, career, art, friendships, and love.

In these years, LIONS, MISS JULIE, and POEMS OF LOVE AND THE RAIN were composed, and most of his books were written; he also continued to socialize with such famous (and infamous) artists as Edward Albee, Christopher Isherwood, Tallulah Bankhead, and Philip Roth, and to write of them."--BOOK JACKET.
