Summary

"You changed my life" – this is the gist of the fan mail Patricia Nell Warren received following the publication of her New York Times bestseller The Front Runner (1974). This book looks at her life, her Ukrainian poetry and translation of a national epic, her sequels to The Front Runner and the most famous gay movie never made, her other novels, and her many contributions to gay and straight magazines. Homosexuality and sports, Catholic morality, right-wing politics, AIDS, queer families, Native American pride, stewardship of our planet, the conflict between Ukraine and Russia – all those issues remain timely, even several years after the death of a woman who changed so many lives.
