Cultural critic Michael Bronski collects a sampling of these now little-known gay erotic writings--some by writers long forgotten, some never known and a few now famous. Through them, Bronski challenges many long-held views of American postwar fiction and the rise of gay literature, as well as of the culture at large.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMichael Bronski \u003c\/b\u003eis the author of \u003ci\u003eCulture Clash: The Making of Gay Sensibility \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eThe Pleasure Principle: Sex, Backlash, and the Struggle for Gay Freedom. \u003c\/i\u003eHe has edited and contributed to many anthologies, has had essays published throughout the world, and teaches and lectures widely.
