Whores, Queers And Others by Philip Barrows

Whores, Queers And Others

The Traveller’s Companion Series

Philip Barrows

Classic of gay literature, and a 10-year chronicle of life split between post-war Paris, Italy, and New York. This seminal title, helping to transition society from the days when Glory Hole meant a lucky mining strike, has been out of print for a while, perhaps because the modern gay community isn’t able to come to grips with Barrows’ ‘final’ decision on his own sexuality. Still, as a work by a man who tried just about everything, beginning his narrative at the seminary of all places, it’s a worthy effort for anyone interested in the subject or the period.

Two volumes.
