Quote from this book "In a very real sense, this book is the product of homosexuality. It was inspired by the enigma of the rising homosexuality in our midst. It was put together with the aid of homosexuals and the people who deal with them. It is not an exposé or indictment of the homosexual, nor is it an apologia or justification. It is as unbiased a report on the homosexual world as a disinterested reporter could make it. It is a glittering make-believe world - at times tragic, sometimes ludicrous, even comical. Like any other world, it runs the gamut of human emotions, and no two emotions are the same. How did my reportorial [sic] interest in this world develop? I am not quite sure. Homosexuality did not obtrude into the regular course of my life. Like many others, I had been inclined to regard the homosexual as an oddity whose existence at no point paralleled my own." opening paragraphs, Chapter One Secondhand booksellers |
