pauLie sHark:
histroy of lesbian haiR - author?
----------------
cHris diaNi from gaYbc today book recammendations:
Such Times by Christopher Coe: Tragic, beautiful book about open
relationships in the age of AIDS. Sad and lovely at the same time.
Rat Bohemia by Sarah Schulman: Another book about the AIDS epidemic,
as seen through the eyes of an East Village lesbian and her friends.
Fag Hag by Robert Rodi: Hilarious comic novel about a woman obsessed
with her best gay friend.
A Boy's Own Story by Edmund White: the BEST coming of age novel
I've ever read - gay OR straight!
Gossip by Christopher Bram: Great, intriguing novel about internet
hookups and Washington DC politics and closet cases and murder.
And this is by the author who wrote "Father of Frankenstein," the
book "Gods & Monsters" was based on.
greg200: LIVE OUTSIDE Michaelangelo Signorile
--------------
elizabeth fRom cocktaiL: "Katharine Graham's Auto Biography" is
not only historicaly instructive but is filled with cool people
and huge social events from the past 50 years... it will make you
smarter
-------------
Rickkey: "What the Bible Really Says about Homosexuality" by Daniel
A Helminiak Ph.D. He reveals the process by which ancient understandings
are misunderstood in modern times
-------------
caRlton: Poppy Z. Brite is the author, her books are "Lost Souls",
"Drawing Blood" and "Wormwood". I think you'd like her
------------
aDam: Hey, Rex! I tuned in a little late but it sounds like you're
talking about good queer books. I would highly recommend "Brother
to Brother," a collection of poems written by African American gay
men, edited by Joseph Beam and Essex Hemphill - two amazing writers.
The introduction, by Essex Hemphill, is a very honest and moving
account of what "home" means and how difficult it can be for gay
black men to find "home."
-------------
The Redqueen in Toronto: The 2 books that I mentioned on the air
and highly recommend are
"Vulgar Favors: Andrew Cunanan, Gianni Versace and the Largest
Failed Manhunt in U.S. History" by Maureen Orth (1999)
"The Beauty of Men" by Andrew Holleran (1997)
