In his pioneering new book, respected pop culture historian Anthony Slide resurrects fifty early 20th-century novels with gay themes or characters and discusses them in carefully researched, engaging prose. For each novel, Slide presents you with a detailed discussion of plot and characters, a summary of how critics reacted to it, and biographical information on the often-obscure writer. In Lost Gay Novels, another aspect of gay life and society is, in the words of the author, "uncloseted," providing you with an absorbing glimpse into the world of these nearly forgotten books.To view an excerpt online, find the book in our QuickSearch catalog at www.HaworthPress.com.
