Author Description

After half a century of metropolitan infamy, Quentin Crisp graduated to international fame when his widely acclaimed autobiography The Naked Civil Servant made him a household name, even in respectable households. In this second volume of autobiography, Quentin Crisp describes the wider horizons of his years as a celebrity at home and aborad, and explains his personal philosophy of inaction, as well as his love affair with North America. How to Become a Virgin is a witty, acute and perceptive as its inimitable author.
