Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Since the early 1990s gay male erotic writing has gained greater acceptance in the world of mainstream publishing. Fiction and nonfiction erotic anthologies have appeared and titillated millions of men who formally found these delights only between the covers of porno magazines. Lawrence Schimel's The Mammoth Book of Gay Erotica is one of the best additions to this growing genre. Schimel has reprinted old favorites by writers such as Aaron Travis and Bill Mann, as well as excerpts from novels by notables such as Christopher Bram, Neil Bartlett, and Alan Hollinghurst. The Mammoth Book of Gay Erotica also features new stories by Paul Elliott Russell, Lars Eighner, and Andrew Holleran and rediscovered writings by Edmund White and Michael Denneny. Sexy, sweaty, sweet, and often very moving, this collection renews your faith in the sexual power and performance of the written word.


Product Description

The largest collection of gay male erotica available, featuring a wide range of authors from the United States, Britain, and around the world. Contributors include Edmund White, Andrew Holleran, Oscar Wilde, William J. Mann, D. Travers Scott, and many others .

4.0 out of 5 stars Wide variety, May 22, 2003
By A Customer
There are a LOT of stories in this anthology! And a wide variety. Characters of many ages, countries, etc. are included. Some stories are quite funny, some "artistic", some militant. Some "literary", some more typical.

These stories will take you into lives you'll never see. It's an entertaining, sad, happy, and sexy book. A cut or two above much of it's kind.

Hard to go wrong at this price!

1.0 out of 5 stars Self-loathing dated unsexy ..., July 7, 2003
By A Customer
These stories were so full of self loathing as to be offensive. Way too much walking around the city in the rain reflecting on the character's: dead lover,miserable life, experiences with homophobia. Furthermore the sex was uninspired. Only 3 of the stories were even mildly arousing and i'm not picky about my porn!
