内容説明

Gay New York brilliantly shatters the myth that before the 1960s gay life existed only in the closet, where gay men were isolated, invisible, and self-hating. Based on years of research and access to a rich trove of diaries, legal records, and other unpublished documents, this book is a fascinating portrait of a gay world that is not supposed to have existed.

内容説明

A fascinating look at a gay world that was not supposed to have existed, this book shows that gay life in prewar New York was extensively integrated into the straight world. Based on years of research, the book is the first to show the thriving urban gay male subculture that flourished prior to the gay rights revolution of our time.
