GAY LIFE STORI PAPERBACK – 30 MAY 2023

Where dividuals have been nsired signifint the velopment of Gay sensibili (on any of a number of levels) that ntributn is duly noted. Gays, apparently, have been, are, and prumably will ntue to be found everywhere! Aldrich his troductn refers to ‘gay men and women’ and briefly discs the simplified termology he adopts.

Increasgly the term ‘gay’ is beg more and more intified wh the male versn, and the female versn as ‘lbian’ — but here Aldrich also wish to rporate a wir nsiratn; whether all the persons clud this survey actually n be nsired as participatg actively homosexual acts is not always clear (pecially some of the more ancient texts); but same-sex sire is most fely there. While this book will not necsarily wow homosexuals, is a eful and pals way to troduce non-homosexuals to a better unrstandg of what some of the bravt homosexuals have had to put up wh om an tolerant and (let’s face ) ignorant sectn of humany, and how they tried to fd their proper place (not always succsfully, but always termedly) society.

GAY LIFE STORI

His approach is not one of simply tracg all known homosexual men and women om as far back as we have rerd history: there have been many books that provi that rmatn. Its purpose is not to offer a pendium of the liv of the 'greatt gays', not to provi an encyclopedic survey of the different sexual typ intified by historians, anthropologists and other specialists. It reprents, rather, a richly diverse ngregatn of figur, whose liv pot up the different personal and social experienc of homosexualy through the ag.

Other figur - a nun, a prit, a ary officer, a crimal - were chosen to show homosexual people a variety of profsnal llgs.

It tak an eclectic, multatnal view of the subject which, for me at least, troduced many figur I had not heard of, though I nsired myself que well-rmed this area, and giv good weightg to the female as well as male experience of gay life too.
