Description:
One glorious result of the boom in gay fiction is that gay and lesbian writers can now produce rich, far-ranging stories on any subject matter--from acid rain to witch burning. But why not throw in a little sex anyway? The latest offering in the His series lives up to its predecessors in presenting the sweaty and steamy beside the thoughtful and heartfelt. Rick Sandford's "Manifest White," Gary Bowen's "Barrel Racer," and Micheal Skeef's "Blood Brothers" are graphic accounts of pickups, though both Skeef's and Bowen's stories gradually unfold other possibilities. Lawrence Reilly's "1984" recounts a high school boy's sexual conquest of a country club tennis pro. In Reginald M. Harris Jr.'s "Haram," a young Arab immigrant maintains a wary interest in a "BlackAmerican" who rides his train each day. The simultaneous publication of His and its lesbian counterpart, Hers, begs a comparison between lesbian and gay fiction (at least as reflected in the choices of editors Robert Drake and Terry Wolverton) that warrants more space than we have here. Suffice it to say that sex is the common ground. --Regina Marler
