Asian Homosexuality (Studies in Homosexuality, Vol 3)

Rating:
Summary: A JUMBLE OF THREAD AND THRUM
Review: I expected a more systematic and comprehensive book, but in vain. I expected a voluminous and exhaustive work, but in vain. I was extremely astonished at the scantiness of space on Japanese same-sex relationship.Among numberless Japanese male love literal works only Akinoyononaga monogatari is translated. Many famous homoerotical stories and historical episodes are omitted. Although this is an interesting book and I don't hesitate to recommend it , I must indicate that it is only an anthological theses collection et meager in content.
