"Maupin's San Francisco saga careens beautifully on." —New York Times Book ReviewThe fourth novel in the beloved Tales of the City series, Armistead Maupin’s best-selling San Francisco saga.When an ordinary househusband and his ambitious wife decide to start a family, they discover there’s more to making a baby than meets the eye. Help arrives in the form of a grieving gay neighbor, a visiting monarch, and the dashing young lieutenant who defects from her yacht. Bittersweet and profoundly affecting, Babycakes was the first piece of fiction to acknowledge the arrival of AIDS.

"A beautiful production, I can’t stand how bad At communication Mary Ann is. If She just talked to Brian none of the events of the book would have taken place. But again overall great way to work in the impact of AIDS. I have heard that later in the series Michael had something too. So I am not looking forward to it."
