Looking for book(s)/other sources re: the HIV/AIDS scare of the ’80s and it’s negative impact on gays and gay communities
I'd welcome memoirs or reference books, but I'm really looking for inspiration/source material for a writing project set during the late 1980s where the topic of HIV/AIDS would be prevalent.
And The Band Played On by Randy Schilts is probably the most thorough non-fiction book on the subject, written from different perspectives of all the key players.
Not a book, but I would also check out the film The Normal Heart, based on the Larry Kramer play.

The Great Believers by Rebecca Makkai is incredibly well written fiction and absolutely heart breaking.
