In 1931, gay liberation was not a movement--it was simply
unthinkable. But in that year, Quentin Crisp made the
courageous decision to "come out" as a homosexual. This
exhibitionist with the henna-dyed hair was harrassed,
ridiculed and beaten. Nevertheless, he claimed his right to
be himself--whatever the consequences. The Naked Civil
Servant is both a comic masterpiece and a unique testament
to the resilience of the human spirit.
