Gay Fiction
Condition: Poor Binding and pages loose and pages browning. Page edges stained. Old pencil price on pre-title page. Plot / Content: "A spine-chilling yet very positive story of a man's slow acceptance of himself as a homosexual, and the extraordinary enemy he has to overcome before he can achieve his liberation." (from the cover) Background / Biography: Reviews: "Peter Hadley in Gay, says: 'A novelist like Dirk Vanden . . . who has written several sexy novels like I Want It All and All or Nothing, is much more than a sex book writer. His characters go through some very erotic scenes, but their coming out, their growing awareness of their homosexuality and its positive meaning is much more important to the book than the erotica. He makes some very important positive points about homosexuality, and that is a good thing.' And Dirk Vanden has been described by Michael Perkins, writing in Screw, as 'A novelist who has decided to write about gay life realistically and even propagandistically, the latter because the straight reader finds himself believing - as the author wishes him to do - that the gay world is somehow tenderer and more feeling than the straight world. Not a bad accomplishment.'"

Quote from this book "The note was creased and worn from many openings and refoldings. The printing was childish and the spelling atrocious, but I knew that no child had conceived such a frightening thing: DERE ROBBER, THIS HERE IS A WARNING. YOU ARE GOING TO DIE. YOR A WIKID AND TERIBEL MAN. YOU HURT PEEPLE. YOR WIFE HATES YOR GUTS AND THE GIRLS AND YOR SUN ALSO. BUT I HATE YOR MORE. YOU DESERV TO DIE AND IF GOD DONT GIT YOU I WIL. PS. YOR SUN IS A QUEER IF YOU DONT NO THAT ALL READY. IF YOU THING I AM FOOLING ASK JERY ASHBY. SO HA HA. THE JOKE IS ON YOU. SINED YOU NO WHO. My hands were shaking as I angrily folded the note. I wanted to rip it to shreds, or crumple or burn it - get rid of it, forget it! What a blessed relief it would be just to get it out of my mind, if only for a couple of hours, or even a few minutes! Instead, I opened and read it again. The action had become a new habit - reading it, refolding it, unfolding it to read it again...." opening paragraphs Secondhand booksellers |
