Everythg I Have Is Blue: Short Fictn by Workg-Class Men About More-or-Ls Gay Life, by Wenll Ricketts. Story Blub: In this age of Will & Grace and gentrifitn, the “dream market” and gay vtment advisors, you don’t hear much about workg-class queers. But the ntributors to Everythg I Have Is Blue: Short Fictn by Workg-Class Men About More-or-Ls Gay Life would beg to differ.

The first llectn of short stori by workg-class queer, gay, and bisexual men, Everythg I Have Is Blue is a rich and long-overdue ntributn both to the burgeong field of workg-class studi and to LGBTIQ fictn. He is senr edor of the anthology Intimate Relatnships: Some Social Work Perspectiv on Love and the thor of Lbians and Gay Men as Foster Parents.

TAG: GAY BLUE LLAR WORKER

Beg Labour Day, I set about fdg a GBLT book thst alt predomantly wh labour and/or work, and happily I me up wh Wenll Ricketts’ llectn of short stori, lled Everythg I Have Is Blue: Short Fictn by Workg-Class Men About More-or-Ls Gay Life [Spect Thoughts Prs, July 29, 2005]. While ‘more-or-ls’ gay, the men each make an effort to avoid the stereotyp that have been assigned to them by the media – the fashn plat, the lerary effete, and so on. This is the image and msage that mak this anthology of workg-class gay stori such a worthwhile read.

Nice to hear om a si of gay society that don’t often get heard om.
