SynopsisWhen Myra Breckinridge first appeared in 1968, critics were delighted, baffled, and somewhat appalled by this comedy of sex change. Thirty years later, Myra has become literature's most famous transsexual. In the sequel, Myron (1974), the Breckinridge saga takes an increasingly bizarre turn. Vidal combines time travel with the ultimate Hollywood fantasy, as Myra attempts to alter cinema history.
