Was tun, wenn man vom einfachen Leben träumt, während einen die Last des Karrieremachens beinahe erdrückt? In der falschen Version der eigenen Existenz zu stecken, dieses Gefühl verfolgte Olaf Nils Dube jahrelang. Als er Mitte Dreißig wurde, nahm er seinen Mut zusammen, schmiss seinen verantwortungsvollen Posten hin und zog von der Etagenwohnung im Prenzlauer Berg in einen Zirkuswagen. Er begann mit der Imkerei, wie heutzutage übrigens immer m...

Will Aitken, the editor of this collection of fictions, said in his recommendation for Dubé's last novel, "Hovering World", that it is "queer in all the best senses of the word non-conformist, eccentric, dissenting, crazed, aberrant, and, of course, invaluable". What was true of that debut, is more so of Dubé's second major work. Again, the reader finds himself in a Big City world of late night neon, narrow streets, lurid bohemian warrens. Roa...

A day-in-the-life novel -- but what a day, what a life! Peter Dubé's first novel, "Hovering World" moves effortlessly from sunlight to midnight and far beyond, in passages that are by turns haunting and haunted, surreal and erotic. The arrival of a photograph of an angel sets off a quest of sorts, and along the way we encounter a general named Disarray, essays in art theory, moments of passionate obsession in both the streets of the city and t...

Jonathan Reid Sevigny was born and raised in Cowansville, in the Eastern Townships of Quebec, a culture so unique and full of rare and local treasures that become significant to those who grew up there but perhaps seem completely foreign and often tacky to outsiders. It isn't the most glamorous town, nor does it have any particular sites or landmarks that one would go out of his / her way to visit. In Sweetsburg Sevigny is attempting to use hi...

The many stories featured in this volume of Best Gay Stories focus on what we, as gay men have in common, what underlies and nourishes the roots of all that fabulous diversity. Stories about our shared experience of those oh-so troubling and conflicted pleasures: desire, longing and love. This is not in itself all that remarkable given one is a gay man - fundamentally -because one desires other men. Desire is constituent of our identity. Ackno...

Editor Peter Dube questions the representations of gay men's lives found in the general media that present gay life and culture as some monolithic structure--that we all go to the same bars, shop in the same stores, eat in the same restaurants, hold the same kinds of political opinions, have similar backgrounds, and work the same kinds of jobs (more often than not urban, and vaguely white-collar.) He has collected authors who have stepped up t...

In the 2011 edition of Best Gay Stories Peter Dubé questions the representations of gay men's lives found in the general media that present gay life and culture as some monolithic structure--that we all go to the same bars, shop in the same stores, eat in the same restaurants, hold the same kinds of political opinions, have similar backgrounds, and work the same kinds of jobs (more often than not urban, and vaguely white-collar.)

Most scholarship dealing with the Abencérage, from 1926 until the 1970's, dealt with a detailed investigation of its genesis. As a consequence, very little work was carried out of a thematic, structural or semiotic nature. This study is the first full-length study of the Abencérage in English. The first part constitutes a synthesis and overview of all of the research which has been carried out on the history of the Abencérage, providing a usef...

It is Paris, 1935, and the poet Rene Crevel (with whatever accent mark) has turned on the gas stove in his apartment. As death fills the rooms, Crevel dwells on past events that changed his life and ended the peace among the Surrealists. Years earlier, Crevel enacted seances for Andre Breton and his guests. At first, these performances were fraudulent, but soon Crevel found himself overcome with lapses in memory and time. Portents made during ...
