Best American Gay Fiction

Following the success of last year's debut volume, this Best American Gay Fiction collection broadens the range of contributors, styles, and genres.

Here is outstanding new work by such well-known writers as Andrew Holleran, Dale Peck, Michael Nava, and David Wojnarowicz alongside fresh talents who capture the full spectrum of gay life today -- African Americans, Latinos, and Asian Americans.

The impressive writing presented here -- all drawn from works published in 1996 -- reflects this diversity as well and ranges from coming-of-age narratives to reflections on growing older, from edgy 'zine fiction to elegant tales wrought with lapidary precision.

Unified only by their excellence, these twenty-one selections are resounding proof of yet another banner year for gay fiction.
