THE NEW PENGU BOOK OF GAY SHORT STORI

The diversy - and uny - of gay love and experience the twentieth century is celebrated this acclaimed anthology, which clus twenty-one stori om the origal llectn, published 1994, together wh fifteen new stori. Wrers clu both men and women, gay and straight, amongst them: John Updike, Edna O'Brien, E. Reviewed the Uned Stat on June 24, 2013This is a big fat wonrful llectn of stori by gays or havg to do wh gays some way, and I enjoyed .

I love the fact that not all of the wrers are gay themselv and not all of them are well-known; fact, I've never heard of most of the wrers, and often their stori stck me as more powerful than those of the well known. Some of the AIDS-themed stori were so sad, reflective of such a difficult era and the many loss suffered the gay panmic.

Reviewed the Uned Stat on Augt 31, 2005This anthology offers a rnupia of gay wrers--some notor and others undisvered. We are offered different perspectiv on the gay experience, and the stori transgrs not only time perds, but age groups as well. I would remend this anthology for those who are new to gay lerature.
