In an intimate portrait of a remarkable man, Grinker describes how Turnbull fell in love with the beautiful, but poor, African-American Joe Towles. For 30 years they lived as an openly gay, interracial couple, until Joe's death of AIDS in 1988. Until his own death from AIDS in 1994, Turnbull lived as a Buddhist monk tutored by the Dalai Lama's eldest brother. 16-page photo insert.
