Westview, Cambridge, MA, 2002, 1^st pr thus.  ISBN 0-8133-3954-5.  Trade soft cover, 319 pages including Afterword and Notes.  Very good; light cover wear and a bit of sunning, a bit of soil and remainder mark on bottom edge; appears unread.  ‘… classic memoir of growing up gay in pre-Stonewall America.  The tale of his desperate struggle to “cure” himself of his homosexuality through psychotherapy is utterly frank and deeply moving.  But Cures is more than one man’s story; it’s the vivid, witty account of a generation, of changing times, shifting social attitudes, and the rising tide of protest against received wisdom. … has written a substantial new afterword that updates both his personal history and the ongoing struggle for a more just society.’ (from rear wrap)
