Publisher's Note
Right from the entrance ramp you'll know that Pink Highways is surely the most outlandish, unabashedly queer, nonstop travelogue ever written. Michael Lane, co-creator of the world's only mobile magazine, Monk, and today's offbeat king of the road, dishes out in these pages his high-camp adventures as an intrepid gay nomad. Whether by drive-away car, the dirty dog of a Greyhound bus, or in the back of a goat-laden truck, Lane's happily reckless pilgrimage takes him from the Pacific Northwest to the 1993 gay rights march on Washington, D.C., from the sands of Marrakech to the backwoods of Maine. Here are his encounters - Funny, scary, sweet - with a tantric-wonder performance artist, sexy hitchhiking grungemeisters, a traveling band of Hopi dancers, little old lesbian black mamas in the Ozarks, Berbers in the Sahara, firecracker-tossing red necks in Oregon, an ever so subtly flaming car mechanic in Indiana, and many others. Told in a voice absolutely, unmistakably his, Michael Lane's stories of wild personalities and warped collisions with the unknown set you free to explore every kink in the road - no matter where you orient your compass.

Industry reviews
Although some readers might be offended by Lane's explicit anatomical descriptions (just a small example of what might offend the prudish here), others will warm to his reverie of living on the edge as he travels across America. Though his creation of Monk, one of the most acclaimed zines, has made him famous in the avant-garde, this book will bring him mainstream attention. Not only is his account of life on the highways from the Northwest to California outlandishly funny, it is very well written. He has the unusual ability to make what would ordinarily sound weird seem sympathetic without being condescending. He can also be a fine journalist; his take on the 1993 gay rights March on Washington is perceptive, clever, and classic. Recommended especially for travel collections in large public libraries and academic collections on contemporary gay culture. David Azzolina, Univ. of Pennsylvania Libs., Philadelphia
