Download or read book Gay Fiction Speaks written by Richard Canning and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2001-01-18 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's most celebrated, prominent, and promising authors of gay fiction in English explore the literary influences and themes of their work in these revealing interviews with Richard Canning. Though the interviews touch upon a wide range of issues—including gay culture, AIDS, politics, art, and activism—what truly distinguishes them is the extent to which Canning encourages the authors to reflect on their writing practices, published work, literary forebears, and their writing peers—gay and straight. Edmund White talks about narrative style and the story behind the cover of A Boy's Own Story. Armistead Maupin discusses his method of writing and how his work has adapted to television. Dennis Cooper thinks about L.A., AIDS, Try, and pop music. Alan Hollinghurst considers structure and point of view in The Folding Star, and why The Swimming-Pool Library is exactly 366 pages long. David Leavitt muses on the identity of the gay reader—and the extent to which that readership defined a tradition. Andrew Holleran wonders how he might have made The Beauty of Men "more forlorn, romantic, lost" by writing in the first person.
Download or read book Some Dance to Remember A Memoir Novel of San Francisco 1970 1982 written by Jack Fritscher and published by Palm Drive Publishing. This book was released on 2010-09 with total page 673 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some Dance to Remember has been reviewed as ¿the gay Gone with the Wind.¿ But such popular praise does not do literary justice to this eyewitness classic of that ¿first golden decade after Stonewall.¿ This best-selling epic of San Francisco¿s Castro seethes with sex, drugs, panic, and passionate characters: a gay writer, a drop-dead gorgeous bodybuilder, a cabaret singer, a Vietnam vet, a Hollywood bitch, and a rough-trade porn mogul. Narrator Magnus Bishop channels Ryan O¿Hara, a writer pioneering a tell-all voice in the emerging subculture of gay magazines. When Ryan meets Quentin Crisp¿s ¿perfect man¿ in Kick Sorenson, lust and politics collide. Steroids rule Castro Street. Gender fascism divides queens versus clones into gay civil war over correct queer identity. White assassinates Milk. Gay rioters burn City Hall. Ryan, romancing the morphing trickster Kick, cruises through nightclubs, ecstatic sex, and leather rituals in legendary bathhouses. Sprung from Isherwood¿s Cabaret, 1970s San Francisco mirrored 1930s Berlin: decadent, dazzling, diverse, doomed. It¿s all here. A city. A murder. A plague. A lost civilization. A love story. Some Dance to Remember is dedicated to Jack Fritscher¿s 1970s bicoastal lover, Robert Mapplethorpe.¿My God, what a book! It¿s all there, done with Fritscher¿s usual élan and verve. I wouldn¿t be surprised if he has written what will be looked on as that period¿s Great American Gay Novel. What lovely stuff! ¿Sam Steward (Phil Andros)¿Jack Fritscher didn¿t invent the Castro. He just made it mythical. HEADY, EROTIC, COMIC....A comprehensive fictional chronicle of the best of times....If one can learn American history via the novels of Gore Vidal, one can learn gay American history through Some Dance.¿ ¿ The Advocate, David Perry¿Cinematic intensity....A brilliant record of gay life before AIDS....An astonishing spectrum of queer lives....This sprawling saga...has not lost a whit of its muscular passion, punchy immediacy, or transformative literary impact.¿ ¿ Books to Watch Out For, Richard Labonté¿STAGGERINGLY ORIGINAL and completely absorbing....Here is San Francisco¿s gay male scene in the 1970s and ¿80s as never told, or documented, before.¿ ¿ Michael Bronski, Author of Culture Clash: The Making of Gay Sensibility

Book excerpt: The “extraordinary novel” (The New York Times Book Review) about one boy’s coming-of-age during the 1950s—and one of the most groundbreaking portrayals of gay life in American fiction “The best American narrative of sexual awakening since Catcher in the Rye.” —Chicago Sun-Times Ridiculed by his classmates and beset by aloof parents and a cruel sister, the unnamed narrator of Edmund White’s first autobiographical novel finds solace in literature, works of art, and his own fantastic imagination. But as he strives to forge new friendships, his yearning to be loved by the men in his life evokes a crushing sense of shame and a struggle to accept who he is. Lyrical and poignant, A Boy’s Own Story—the first of a trilogy, followed by The Beautiful Room Is Empty and The Farewell Symphony—is an American literary treasure that became an instant classic upon publication for its pioneering portrayal of homosexuality.
