Book Description

October 1996
Boys will be girls and girls will be boys. String of Pearls is a collection of provocative, sexy stories about cross-dressing amassed by Australian writer and filmmaker Tony Ayres. Often the tales are about gender confusion, undermining the rigid boundaries by which sexuality is defined. They also touch upon themes of sexual ambiguity, clothing as fetish and ritual, and disguise as a vehicle for unveiling hidden truth.

This review is from: String of Pearls: Stories About Cross-Dressing (Paperback)
Unforunately this book doesn't live up to it's promises. The stories about cross dressing never focus on why the characters cross dress or even describe the world of drag. Drag is becoming more popular, clubs are everywhere and the potential for a book of stories about these individuals and places is there. This is what I had hoped I would find in String of Pearls. Half of the stories I couldn't even finish and the other half I wish I hadn't.
