The Penguin Book of Gay Short Stories
These thirty-nine stories chronicle the gay experience over the course of the last century, beginning with the unarticulated longing of two boys swimming in D.H. Lawrence's A Poem of Friendship and ending with the explicit sexual interaction of two boys in a bathtub in A.M. Homes's The Whiz Kids. In between there is every imaginable kind of gay story written by every imaginable kind of writer--gay and straight, men and women--all illuminating the common ground of the gay male experience and its astonishing diversity.
