JB mentioned in an article on “coming out” to family and friends. The article reproduces a piece by Dr George Weinberg published ‘in a recent American Homophile Magazine’ and mentions JB’s Giovanni’s Room as a book to give to family and friends: ‘Be ready to familiarise them with what it means to be gay. It will be a revelation – if willing, they might profit from CHE literature or Dr. D.J West’s book “Homosexuality” (Pelican) or “Time for Consent” by Dr Norman Pittinger (SPCK) – this is a book that ALL Should read. Also the novel “Giovanni’s Room” by James Baldwin (Corgi) is recommended.’
