Description:
"Is there something that is inherently 'queered' about the books gay men bring into the English language?" asks Brian Bouldrey. "Yes, and in an exquisitely subtle way, a way that can teach anybody, gay or straight, how to speak that language." He's selected stories for the third volume of the Best American Gay Fiction series with that principle in mind, looking for fiction that offers insight into the unique facets of gay life while offering new perspectives on the things we all take for granted. The 16 contributors include established authors like Allan Gurganus and Dennis Cooper (Cooper is represented by an excerpt from his novel Guide) as well as fresh new writers like Scott Heim and Justin Chin. Bouldrey also has recommendations for other great stories and novels that he was unable to include. Not that there's any cause for complaint about all the great literature he did manage to squeeze between these covers.
