520 The fifth book in the Tales of the city series.
Tranquillity reigns in the ancient redwood forest until a
women-only music festival sets up camp downriver from an
all-male retreat for the ruling class. Among those
entangled in the ensuing mayhem are a lovesick nurseryman,
a panic-stricken philanderer, and the world's most
beautiful fat woman.--Back cover of paperback edition.
520 "It is now 1985 and much of the action is set in the
Russian River area north of San Francisco. Here,
successful businessmen from around the globe gather at
Bohemian Grove for a three-week encampment of male bonding,
while downriver from them events at Wimminwood, a lesbian
music and arts festival, threaten the relationship of DeDe
Halcyon-Day and D'orothea Wilson. Returning characters
include Mary Ann Singleton, who is having difficulty
balancing her commitment to her career as a local talk
show hostess with her obligations as a wife to Brian and
mother to Shawna, the child of her friend Connie, who
entrusted the girl's care to Mary Ann on her deathbed;
Michael Tolliver, the romantic gay man who has tested HIV-
positive and is taking AZT to combat the threat to his
immune system; and Anna Madrigal, the transgendered
landlady who mothers her tenants at 28 Barbary Lane on
Russian Hill and is fighting to preserve the historic
wooden steps of the lane. New characters include Thack
Sweeney, who meets Michael during a tour of Alcatraz and
Wren Douglas, a plus-size model whose best-selling self-
help book offers hope to overweight women. There is also a
focus on a previously minor character, Roger "Booter"
Manigault, DeDe's stepfather and a member of the Bohemian
Club, who accidentally stumbles into Wimminwood and is
held captive by one of its more militant organizers.
Brian's college-aged nephew Jed also makes an appearance
as a young Reaganite more interested in getting into
Harvard Law and making money than having fun."--Wikipedia
