In 1972, San Francisco was a sanctuary for queer men finding their voice-and their bodies. Bonding in the Time of Plague is Chuck Forester's unflinching, deeply intimate memoir of sexual awakening, community, and survival during one of history's most devastating health crises.

From the pioneering private clubs of Castro Street to the shadow of AIDS that silenced a generation, Forester shares a candid chronicle of queer life when it was both fiercely liberating and perilously new. He recounts the electric freedom of the 1970s, the profound bonds forged through touch and trust, and the devastating loss of lovers, friends, and mentors. Yet this is also a story of resilience: as one of America's oldest living long-term HIV survivors, Forester reflects on fifty years of navigating stigma, science, and solitude with unwavering honesty.

Readers will discover:

  • A rare, firsthand account of queer sexual culture before and during the AIDS epidemic
  • The emotional and physical realities of long-term HIV survival
  • The transformative power of intimacy, consent, and chosen family
  • Unvarnished stories of love, loss, and the men who shaped a movement

Part love letter, part historical record, Bonding in the Time of Plague refuses to look away. It honors the men who lived boldly, loved fiercely, and survived against the odds.

If you're ready for a memoir that blends raw intimacy with queer history, turn the first page. Your journey begins now.
