Landscape with traveler : the pillow book of Francis Reeves

In print for the first time in 15 years, Landscape with Traveler was the first full-length novel by Gifford. It lays bare the themes that have marked his lifelong career: gay issues; a winsome, Beat-inspired frenzy of love; the generation-defining crossroads in American history. Written as the protagonist's diary, and structured as three acclaimed short novels bound into one volume, the book recounts the deep friendship between a middle-aged gay man and a young straight man through vignette-like entries, all the while tracing a history of US.
