Colm Toibin, David Leavitt, Michael Lowenthal, Jaime Manrique, William J Mann, Christian McLaughlin, Frank Ronan and Bernard Cooper are just a few of the writers included in this collection of the best fiction by male authors at the close of the millennium. Novel excerpts bump up against short stories; science fiction jostles beside literary fiction, punk sensibility elbows its way next to high camp. If it's queer, it's here and this international collection of fiction well illustrates the power and diversity of gay writing today.
