—A selection of Dennis Cooper’s Little House on the Bowery series.

The contributors range in age from sixteen to early forties. They are gay, straight, and in some cases still searching for their identities. They live in North America’s cities and small towns as well as in countries as physically far afield as Norway, Italy, Spain, Denmark, France, and the UK." —Dennis Cooper, from the Introduction
