Background / Biography: "Peter Burton, arts and features editor of Gay Times, is uniquely qualified to bring out the best in the people he interviews. Author of the official biography of Rod Stewart, an autobiographer himself (Parallel Lives), and journalist for the whole of his working existence, he has the ability to ask exactly the right questions and elicit frank, often unexpected and provocative answers. These interviews span a quarter of a century: some of the writers talking here - Christopher Isherwood, for example, Robin Maugham and Kenneth Williams, are now dead; others - Francis King, Patrick Gale, Neil Bartlett - have books still to write. Talking To... is a highly readable and immensely useful contribution to our knowledge of gay literature, history and the lives of our authors. It is likely to be the most important gay publication of 1991."
