Monette Paul
Last Watch of the Night: Essays Too Personal and Otherwise
Harcourt 1994. Book. Fine. Hardcover. First Edition. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Near-new condition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. NO writing or tears. 309 pages. Tight spine bright pages. - Paul Monette's autobiography - Becoming a Man: Half a Life Story a searingly honest account of growing up gay in America - won the 1992 National Book Award for Nonfiction. In the year and a half since even as he battles full-blown AIDS he has been writing essays on a variety of subjects. A portrait of his dog as they endure together the losses of friends and then the ravages of the author's own illness. An atheist's appreciation of the saintliness of priests. A meditation on a lifetime of travel that is also an inquiry into the meaning of time. The 1993 March on Washington and what it means to be gay and lesbian now in a time of rising bigotry and intolerance. Monette excoriates with Swiftian vigor the do-nothing politicians so-called Christians and halfhearted journalists. Throughout as a kind of counterpoint he examines the medical and emotional landscape of his illness with references to the Classical world and the genius of English poetry. He is by turns philosophical humorous self-critical. With Borrowed Time and Becoming a Man these essays constitute the third volume of Paul Monette's autobiographical writing. Freewheeling and yet focused brimming with outrage and yet tender Last Watch of the Night represents a profound personal reconciliation but also a testament to the struggle for freedom of all gay and lesbian people. Annotation This collection of essays constitutes the third volume of National Book Award winner Paul Monette's autobiographical writings. Among the pieces featured are Monette's portrait of his dog as they endure loss together an atheist's appreciation of the saintliness of a priest and a rumination on what it's like to be gay and lesbian today.

The 1993 March on Washington and what it means to be gay and lesbian now in a time of rising bigotry and intolerance. Monette excoriates with Swiftian vigor the do-nothing politicians so-called Christians and halfhearted journalists. Throughout as a kind of counterpoint he examines the medical and emotional landscape of his illness with references to the Classical world and the genius of English poetry. He is by turns philosophical humorous self-critical. With Borrowed Time and Becoming a Man these essays constitute the third volume of Paul Monette's autobiographical writing. Freewheeling and yet focused brimming with outrage and yet tender Last Watch of the Night represents a profound personal reconciliation but also a testament to the struggle for freedom of all gay and lesbian people. Annotation This collection of essays constitutes the third volume of National Book Award winner Paul Monette's autobiographical writings. Among the pieces featured are Monette's portrait of his dog as they endure loss together an atheist's appreciation of the saintliness of a priest and a rumination on what it's like to be gay and lesbian today.
