500    "Originally published in India in 2015 by HarperCollins 
       Publishers India Limited as No One Else." 
520    A revelatory memoir about sex, oppression, and the 
       universal struggle for justice by the executive director 
       of UNAIDS describes his personal quest for love and self-
       respect as a gay youth in mid-twentieth-century India and 
       at Harvard. 
520    "From his time as a child in 1960s India, Siddharth Dube 
       knew that he was different. Reckoning with his femininity 
       and sexuality--and his intellect--would send him on a 
       lifelong journey of discovery: from Harvard classrooms to 
       unsafe cruising sites; from ivory-tower think-tanks to 
       shantytowns; from halls of power at the UN and the World 
       Bank to jail cells where sexual outcasts were brutalized. 
       Coming of age in the earliest days of AIDS, Dube was at 
       the front lines when that disease made rights for gay men 
       and for sex workers a matter of basic survival, pushing to
       decriminalize same-sex relations and sex work in India, 
       both similarly outlawed dating back to British colonial 
       rule. (His efforts would contribute to the repeal of 
       Section 377 in 2018.) He became a trenchant critic of the 
       United States' imposition of its cruel anti-prostitution 
       policies on developing countries--an effort legitimized by
       leading American feminists and would-be do-gooders--
       warning that this was a twenty-first-century replay of the
       moralistic Victorian-era campaigns that had spawned 
       endless persecution of countless women, men, and trans 
       individuals the world over. Profound, ferocious, and 
       luminously written, [this book] is both a personal and 
       political journey, weaving Dube's own quest for love and 
       self-respect with unforgettable portrayals of the 
       struggles of some of the world's most oppressed people, 
       those reviled and cast out for their sexuality. Informed 
       by a lifetime of scholarship and introspection, it is 
       essential reading on the global debates over sexuality, 
       gender expression, and securing human rights and social 
       justice in a world distorted by inequality and right-wing 
       ascendancy."--Dust jacket.
