The groundbreaking work on being homosexual in Americaâ‚¬"available again only from Penguin Classics and with a new foreword by Dan Savage

Originally published in 1971, Merle Millerâ‚¬sÂ On Being DifferentÂ is a pioneering and thought-provoking book about being homosexual in the United States. Just two years after the Stonewall riots, Miller wrote a poignant essay for theÂ New York Times MagazineÂ entitled â‚¬Å“What It Means To Be a Homosexualâ‚¬Â in response to a homophobic article published inÂ Harperâ‚¬s Magazine. Described as â‚¬Å“the most widely read and discussed essay of the decade,â‚¬Â it carried the seed that would blossom intoÂ On Being Differentâ‚¬"one of the earliest memoirs to affirm the importance of coming out.
