The Body and Its Dangers and Other Stories (1990) -- Winner 2002 Lambda Literary Award for Male Fiction and a special mention by the PEN/Ernest Hemingway Award Committee. A collection of stories about the modern condition of gay men -- unrelentingly stark, beautifully written and completely honest.

Something Inside: Conversations With Gay Fiction Writers
(1980, 1999) by Philip
Gambone, Compiler and
Robert Giard,
Photographer
In the last twenty years, gay
literature has earned a place at the American and British literary
tables, spawning its own constellation of important writers and winning
a dedicated audience. No one though, until Philip Gambone, has attempted
to offer a collective portrait of our most important gay writers. This
collection of interviews attempts just that, and is notable both for the
depth of Gambone's probing conversations and for the sheer range of
important authors included. Virtually every prominent gay author writing
in English today is here, including Alan
Hollinghurst, Allen Barnett,
Andrew Holleran,
Bernard Cooper,
Brad Gooch,
Brian Keith Jackson,
Christopher Bram,
David Leavitt,
David Plante,
Dennis Cooper,
Edmund White,
Gary Glickman,
John Preston,
Joseph Hansen,
Lev Raphael,
Michael Cunningham,
Michael Lowenthal,
Michael Nava,
Paul Monette,
Peter Cameron, and
Scott Heim.
