The Penguin Book of Gay Short Stories by David Leavitt

The Penguin Book of Gay Short Stories by David Leavitt

The collection ranges from the tender unarticulated longings of D.H. Lawrence's "A Poem of Friendship" and ends with the explicit sexual interaction of two boys in a bathtub in A.M. Homes's "The Two Whiz Kids". Writers include both men and women, gay and straight, amongst them: Barbara Pym, Edna O'Brien, F.M. Forster, Christopher Isherwood, Paul Bailey, William Trevor and Edmund White.

Leavitt, David: - David Leavitt's first collection of stories, Family Dancing, was published when he was just twenty-three and was a finalist for both the National Book Critics Circle Award and the PEN/Faulkner Prize. The Lost Language of Cranes was made into a BBC film, and While England Sleeps was short-listed for the Los Angeles Times Fiction Prize. With Mark Mitchell, he coedited The Penguin Book of Short Stories, Pages Passed from Hand to Hand, and cowrote Italian Pleasures. Leavitt is a recipient of fellowships from both the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts. He divides his time between Italy and Florida.
