After oodles of splashy, breathless bios Darwin Porter uncaps his purple pen for Pink Triangle: The Feuds and Private Lives of Tennessee Williams, Gore Vidal, Truman Capote, and Famous Members of Their Entourages [Kindle]. Some smouldering tidbit maybe about the Kennedys -- oh this, Jackie + Nureyev! and Nureyev + Bobby! -- has already been picked up by the Globe. No, not the Boston Globe. The trashy tabloid.
