Fresh men

new voices in gay fiction

Edición de la obra Fresh men

Certain to become a new cornerstone of the gay literary tradition, *Fresh Men: New Voices in Gay Fiction* brings together twenty outstanding stories by new authors. From coming out to coming of age, from family politics to love in the time of AIDS, *Fresh Men* speaks to the broad range of gay experiences today in stories that are brave, irreverent, funny, sensitive and hot. "Gay writing now encompasses as many subjects as does straight writing—and the category is just as comprehensive. No longer is gay writing necessarily tinged with confession or jazzed up with pornography; no longer is it the story of star-crossed lovers, or of lonely middle-class white boys coming out, or of bitter old queens. If this anthology is thought of as a house, it’s a big rooming house inhabited by every kind of client, of every age and color and background . . . It’s a very full house.” —Edmund White, from the Introduction
