For those who admired him for his Intellect, Humanity and Courage.
Dedicated to the memory of
Quentin Crisp

"It is explained that all relationships require a little give and take.
This is untrue.
Any partnership demands that we give and give and give and at the last, as we flop into our graves exhausted, we are told that we didn't give enough."

- Quentin Crisp

An Evening With Quentin Crisp (CD)

A cd has just been released of his one man show "An Evening With Quentin Crisp".
This show was recorded in a studio in America in 1979 in front of a live audience.
The question and answer session is very worth listening to.
His reply to a question about music is absolutely fascinating and shows the level of genius at which his mind worked.

The interview at the end of the second cd in which Quentin chats to Morgan Fisher takes place in Quentin's own room in London in June 1980 is a particular delight. Quentin is very relaxed and this makes it perhaps the most insightful interview with Quentin that I have ever heard.
The cd would be worth buying even if it just contained this interview alone.

It can be purchased from Amazon.
