“While Sean Strub resists seeing himself as a ‘hero,’ this inspiring book proves he is the voice of a community of people who are exactly that, heroes—him most definitely included. This is an important book, a vital history of ordinary people rising up and demonstrating the potential inherent in this extraordinary country. But Body Counts also highlights the all-too-human flaws and systemic failures that have kept us from reaching it. Although at times it is agonizing to remember and relive our past, Sean’s articulate, and humane memoir transforms this pain into a hope for a better future. This is the most personally powerful and authentic portrayal of our collective history that I have read since Paul Monette's On Borrowed Time."——Judith Light,美國演員
“What a life! From the Senate elevator to Studio 54 to Andy Warhol and Tennessee Williams, Gore Vidal and John Lennon to the famous demonstration inside St. Patrick’s Cathedral--who is this guy, Forest Gump? This is the compelling life and near-death story of Sean Strub, of thousands lost to HIV-AIDS, and thousands more living with it whom his activism helped save. Wow.”——Andrew Tobias, author of The Best Little Boy in the World
