The penguin book of gay short stories

The collection ranges from the tender unarticulated longings of D.H. Lawrence’s “A Poem of Friendship” and ends with the explicit sexual interaction of two boys in a bathtub in A.M. Homes’s “The Two Whiz Kids”. Writers include both men and women, gay and straight, amongst them: Barbara Pym, Edna O’Brien, F.M. Forster, Christopher Isherwood, Paul Bailey, William Trevor and Edmund White.
