The Love that Dare Not Speak Its Name
Essays on Queer Desire and Sexuality
Description:... A collection of essays focusing on gay male sexuality, this anthology includes bisexual, gay, and transgender essayists writing about life, love, desire, and sex, exploring how they perceive themselves sexually, how their sexual preference defines them, and what turns them on. Bringing together 14 insightful and thought-provoking essays from a diverse international group of queer authors, these essays are snapshots into each man's life -- brave, personal, and honest. Varied in theme, the essays' topics range from past lovers and preferred lovers, promiscuity and monogamy, to gender, class, racial, and interracial issues, and how they relate to, and sometimes define, each man's sexuality. Written in numerous styles and voices, from humorous and biting to raunchy and graphic to poignant and poetic, the essays blend into an unforgettable and important anthology that gives voice to a wide spectrum of gay men.
