Wild Animals I Have Known

If Vince of 'Queer as Folk' kept a diary, it might read a lot like 'Wild Animals I've Known'. The passages detailing his sexual exploits are thoughtful, funny, arousing and downright smutty. Set against the backdrop of San Francisco in the heyday of gay bohemia, the novel recounts war stories of love, sex, self-doubt, friendship, humour and unapologetic partying. First and foremost an intensely erotic record, it is also the diary of a bookish, terrified, exuberantly promiscuous and laughably romantic gay man's unique experience in a legendary gay milieu.
