Description:

If you're looking for an objective guide to New York City, you won't find it in Betty & Pansy's Severe Queer Review of New York. What you will find becomes clear on the very first page: "New York City, as you already know, is totally fun, fast, dirty and completely messed up, which we discovered the hard way when we arrived all alone and virginal. Once we were worn down, used up and permanently embittered, we wrote this book as a warning to those who might come after us.... " It should be apparent by now that Betty and Pansy are not your average travel writers. As they themselves caution, "Some of you may not agree with us, but we are forced by our natures to call them as we see them (and to leave 'em where God flung 'em). So bear that in mind."

In the Severe Queer Review of New York, gay and lesbian travelers will find a comprehensive guide to bars, clubs, restaurants, favorite cruising areas, and other attractions, all described in Betty and Pansy's inimitable style. A description of the Wall Street Sauna, for example, says "At first I wondered if a nudist colony and an old-age home had collided, and then a bathhouse had been built around the accident site.... "For the skinny on New York's best gay and lesbian hangouts, trust Betty and Pansy--they won't steer you wrong.
