RIP, Felice Picano

On March 11, gay author and member of the Violet Quill collective Felice Picano passed away at the age of 81. Our group discussed his 1979 novel, The Lure, back in 2020.

His death leaves Andrew Holleran and Edmund White as the only Violet Quill survivors.

Here are tributes to Picano in the New York Times, Advocate, Bay Area Reporter and Edge Media Network; I'll add others as they appear online. In addition, here is a link to Picano's website.
