...transgendered rights is a battle for basic human decency. To Mr. Adams, I can only hope that your gay children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews can survive the atmosphere of hatred you are perpetuating without taking their own lives, as so many of our gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered youth do every day.

...mixed reviews for his new book, A Crackup at the Race Riots. On the wholesome-to-jaded spectrum of American artistic endeavor, his work is as far from Culkin's as one could go.

Biskind's history lesson also has its fair share of tantalizing dope and sex lore--at times the horrible stories from former spouses...
