“Readers of this book should be ready to experience an engaging intimate conversation about how to live with wisdom and passion while embarked on the uncertain journey of midlife. Gay men of all ages will be enriched by Isensee’s timely and eloquent synthesis of his clinical work and the firsthand accounts of ten remarkably articulate men. If you are curious about life after coming out, Are You Ready? is a landmark that will serve as a reference point in your own travels. It just may redirect your life.” —Robert M.
