There actually is one good story in this book, and it's on Page 332 (:"LUV, G"). The rest of the stories are heavy on drama, gore, dire fates, and disappointments. Worse, they don't read like real life at all. Two American stories that shouldn't have been included: an over-the-top melodrama by Joseph Hansen, and a fatuous ghost story set in a writer's colony by Felice Picano. Maybe you'll like them better than I did. Gay life isn't nearly as dire or stressful as these stories suggest it is. These stories were supposedly solicited from noted writers. Maybe the writers sent in rejects that they had sitting on their shelves. Whaddya think?
