    In this interview, Thomas Laqueur ranges widely across his childhood in 1940s Istanbul and 1950s small-town West Virginia to his “crisis” as a social historian that propelled him to cultural history and the study of sexuality and to his attempt to understand the cultural work of the dead. Friendship emerges not only as a thread connecting his various intellectual enterprises but as his way of exploring and living in the world.
