Fifty Gay and Lesbian Books Everybody Must Read

"In a wide-ranging group of essays by some of today's novelists, writers, and critics, Fifty Gay and Lesbian Books Everybody Must Read insists on the importance of these fifty titles to all readers but also challenges our own bookshelves to make room for new arrivals. Some familiar names - Melville, Plato, Sappho, Rimbaud - are seen afresh, while others will be unfamiliar and waiting to be discovered."--Jacket.
