Meanwhile, in Another Part of the Forest
Gay Stories From Alice Munro to Yukio Mishima
This comprehensive collection of forty-five stories on male homosexuality by the world’s greatest writers, gay and not gay, displays both the unique nature of gay fiction and its universality; it is ‘an anthology of intimacy, and the insights it gives are into the universal human condition’ (Robert Olen Butler).
