The Memoirs That Reveal the Hamptons Behind the Hedges
‘Out East: Memoir of a Montauk Summer’ by John Glynn
Named Best LGBTQ Book of 2019 by O, the Oprah Magazine, and featuring a blurb by the author of ‘Call Me By Your Name,’ Glynn’s debut memoir follows a single summer in a Montauk share house when the author was 27 years old. It highlights pivotal moments surrounding beginnings, endings and realizations of life and love. It’s more of a coming-of-age and coming out story than a portrait of the area, but set amidst beautiful beach bonfires and Montauk in peak summer.
