Annotation |
Chronicles the deliberately set fire that claimed the lives of thirty-one men and one woman at a New Orleans bar in 1973. The aftermath--including families ashamed to claim loved ones and the Catholic Church refusing proper burial rights--led to the emergence of a fledgling gay movement. Some strong language, some violence. Commercial audiobook. 2018.
