It is here where they began their life together as a uple their mid-twenti, when the five-story brownstone was like a tenement and Gay lived 3F, a stud they both still refer to as his “bachelor pad”; this is where they raised their two dghters, Pamela and Cathere, and slowly took over every apartment the buildg before fally buyg 1973; this is where they have held numerable book parti for Nan’s celebrated thors; and this is where Gay has done much of the wrg—the historic Esquire piec, the bt sellers wh biblil tl—that brought him fame, fortune, and no small amount of personal agony.

It seems far removed om Gay’s realm, jt a floor above, where he keeps the artifacts of his storied reer (cludg a life-size rdboard cutout of himself) along wh his untls bpoke sus and dozens of hand-bbled sho. ” As slowly dawns on me that Gay has not told her that he has agreed to participate an article about their marriage, I n feel the tensn beg to rise.

Nan has said the past that she has not, though Gay, through y hts the prs, would perhaps like to believe otherwise.
