Sullivan kept comprehensive journals from age 11 until his AIDS-related death at 39. Sensual, lascivious, challenging, quotidian and poetic, the diaries complicate and disrupt normative trans narratives. Entries from twenty-four diaries reveal Sullivan's self-articulation and the complexity of a fascinating and courageous figure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nightboat Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48845335036109,"sku":"9781643620176","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0557\/1529\/9533\/files\/imageloader_a7179c46-144b-4591-921d-47cea1c6f3fd.jpg?v=1792718371","url":"https:\/\/booksatmidnight.com\/products\/we-both-laughed-in-pleasure","provider":"Books At Midnight","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
