Book excerpt: An early, pre-Stonehouse classic of gay literature, describing life among the community in New Orleans. Thomas Schwartz (aka Titania, Queen of the Fairies), wanders about in search of the Gaudy Image--that most masculine man, a dream lover who knows what he wants. The book very nearly wasn't published by Olympia. A catalog of '58 listed "The Porridge Tasters," by M. Meeske, featuring drugs in NY, as the work to expect. That book didn't get written; this one did.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I'm besotted with this beguiling, hilarious, rollocking, language-metamorphosing novel. The future of the queer avant-garde is safe with Isabel Waidner." Olivia Laing Gaudy Bauble stages a glittering world populated by GoldSeXUal StatuEttes, anti-drag kings, Gilbert-&-George-like lesbians, maverick detectives, a transgender army equipped with question-mark-shaped helmets, and birds who have dyke written all over them. Everyone interferes with the plot. No one is in control of the plot. Surprises happen as a matter of course: A faux research process produces actual results. Hundreds of lipstick marks reanimate a dying body. And the Deadwood-to-Dynamo Audience Prize goes to whoever turns deadestwood into dynamost. Gaudy Bauble stages what happens when the disenfranchised are calling the shots. Riff-raff are running the show and they are making a difference.
