Synopsis Michael "Mouse" Tolliver, the delightful character from Armistead Maupin's TALES OF THE CITY, is now well into his 40s, and thanks to drug cocktails he has weathered the storm of HIV. In addition, he has a new boyfriend who is only in his 20s. A lot has changed since 1989, when TALES OF THE CITY drew to a close, but many things have stayed the same: San Francisco is still awash in fascinating, gender-bending, sexually and spiritually adventuresome characters, and readers will be thrilled to return to Maupin's wonderful blend of realism and melodrama.
