The Gaudy Image | William Talsman
1 post
An early, pre-Stonehouse classic of gay literature, describing life among the community in New Orleans. Thomas Schwartz (aka Titania, Queen of the Fairies), wanders about in search of the Gaudy Image--that most masculine man, a dream lover who knows what he wants. The book very nearly wasn't published by Olympia. A catalog of '58 listed "The Porridge Tasters," by M. Meeske, featuring drugs in NY, as the work to expect. That book didn't get written; this one did.
