First Edition

This bibliography provides a chronological listing of all known books in the English language, in the general field of fiction, concerned with male homosexuality, or having homosexual characters. It includes novels, short stories, short novels, poems, drama and fictionalized biography, plus a few other minor categories.

This bibliography does not include works not in the English language. It does not include works concerned with female homosexuals (except where incidentally also involved). It does not include medical or psychiatric works (e.g., Ellis, Kinsey et al.). It does not include philosophical studies (e.g., Plato’s, Gide’s Corydon et al.). It does not include magazine stories, unless subsequently published in “book” form, but the term “book” is taken to include various types of “paperbacks”. It does not include ordinary (unfictionalized) biography or autobiography except when in the “primary” category (see below).

This bibliography is divided into two separate, parallel sections:

Primary: Definition: Central character(s) clearly homosexual(s) and/or homosexuality is intrinsic part of central theme or network of plots.

The order is chronological by years, alphabetical by author’s surname within the same year, numbered consecutively. Short stories are given separate numbers (even if in the same book) but poems only one for the whole book. The date is U.S. publication date unless the work has not yet been published in the U.S. or has been published elsewhere more than 5 years before U.S. publication, but in the latter case there is usually an additional reference to cover U.S. publication. All citations are novels unless otherwise indicated (SS Short Stories; P Poetry D Drama; SN Short Novels, etc.)

Other Than Primary. (referred to hereafter as OTP)

Definition: All other works not considered as “Primary”, and differentiated by the following letter-symbols:

a :

substantial, explicit dialogue or exposition involving major homosexual character(s).

b :

substantial dialogue or explicit exposition involving minor homosexual character(s).

c :

latent, veiled, repressed or implied homosexuality of a major character.

d :

brief, superficial references in dialogue or exposition, whether involving major or minor homosexual characters.

e :

third-person references (character not in book); latent, veiled homosexuality of minor character in work of a significant author.

f :

false suspicion or accusation, or self-suspicion.

In some cases, where use of one letter alone would give an inadequate impression, several are used in combination, e.g. c/d or b&c. All letter symbols are found on the OTP listings to the left of applicable work. The order follows that of the Primary, but without consecutive numbering.

It does not by any means follow that all works which by definition are “Primary” are necessarily more significant, even with respect to substantial homosexual content, than all OTP works. To provide some further guidance, references (to the left) include the follow asterisk notations, uniform to both Primary and OTP listings:

***

Very substantial

**

Quite substantial, or something of especial interest

*

Not very substantial

(no asterisk)

Rather negligible

It must be emphasized that literary merit, or interesting material of a non-homosexual nature, are not prime considerations in determining the asterisk rating, which refers only to homosexual content.

Reprints are cited wherever known, especially inexpensive paperbacks. In this connection, the following abbreviations are used:

Pb:

Paperback of the conventional size (approximately 4.5 × 7"). Most names are written out (Avon, Signet, Bantam, Popular etc.). However, where space is limited: Perm is “Permabook”; PB Pocket Book; PL Pocket Library

Lpb/LPb

refers to odd-size cheap paperbacks, popular in the early 1950s, roughly 5.5 × 7.5", with flexible cover (e.g. Universal, Croydon)

PbO or LPbO

indicates work originally published in this format, with no prior “regular” edition. This is further indicated by publication date following serial number (not usually given for paperback reprints).

AFE/ASE

refers to a third type cheap paperback, used by Armed Forces.

PC (Paper Covers)

indicates “quality paperback” or paperback original by regular-book publisher in U.S. or Europe. In this group, MLP stands for Modern Library Paper.

Where the work has been revised or abridged in paperback reprint, this is indicated, the word “drastically” referring, when used, to expurgation or revision of the homosexual content.

This bibliography does not include any unchecked “hearsay” works. Insofar as it may fall short of completeness (through the end of 1958) it is only by mischance, and it is to be hoped that any works missed are in the less significant categories. The Second Edition is tentatively scheduled for March, 1961 and in the meantime, the publisher will be pleased to receive any suggestions for changes or additions for the next edition. It will be noted that with respect to new titles in 1959 and 1960, a half-page remains blank in the Primary section (at the end) and there is a whole page for 1959 and for 1960 which can be filled in by pencil or pen as new titles come to the reader’s attention.

While the intention has been to be as objective as possible, there is inevitably an element of personal opinion, both as regards the asterisk-rating and the distinction between Primary and OTP. As there are, frankly, a few dozen works which could be considered as falling into either the Primary or the OTP section on the basis of the definition used, these will be found to have at the end of the citation the notation “OTP-x?” when placed in the Primary section, and the notation “Primary?” when placed in the OTP section.

The chronological arrangement has been chosen in preference to one alphabetical for two reasons: 1) To provide a convenient picture of the increase of the number of works in historical perspective (which is, after all, a chronological one); 2) To make it simple to keep the bibliography up to date (an alphabetical listing would require revision as each new work is published). Readers wishing to find all the works of a well-known author included herein, will in most cases find the author listed in the Authors’ Index (p. 32); however, even when an author’s name is not found in this index, the reader will in most cases know at least the decade of publication, and from that point it will only require glancing at the appropriate alphabetical position on a few successive pages to locate the name and work.

In addition to the Authors’ Index, there are four other indexes at the end of this bibliography, ranging over national locales, special locales, professions and special occupations, and special topics, roles etc. The reader will find these indexes very useful, whatever his special interests may be. The abbreviations applicable to the Indexes are explained in a note at the beginning of the index section (p. 29).

The sources for this bibliography are of course many, but acknowledgments are due especially to the following: To Donald Webster Cory for his pioneer bibliography in Homosexual in America, continued for several years in his book service; to the Village Theater Center, which has been especially helpful for contemporary British works; to the Mattachine Society of New York which, in preparing the Mattachine bibliography (on a somewhat different basis), has acted as a clearing house for many contributors, especially P.M.

Transcriber’s Notes

- Obvious typographic errors silently corrected. Terminal punctuation standardized with a period.

- Index punctuation standardized to a consistent style. Obvious typos in the cross references silently corrected.

- To avoid any ambiguity, repeated authors and ditto marks in the index replaced with the full text of what’s being repeated.

- Standardized the punctuation and indentation in the Index for uniformity.

- The index entries for "Goodwin, P53" don't correspond to an existing entry in the Primary bibliography but likely refer to John Goodwin, The Idols and the Prey, New York: Harper & Brothers, 1953.

- The index entry for "Home, 47" does not correspond to any listing in the OTP bibliography.

Creating the works from print editions not protected by U.S. copyright law means that no one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation (and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without permission and without paying copyright royalties. Special rules, set forth in the General Terms of Use part of this license, apply to copying and distributing Project Gutenberg™ electronic works to protect the PROJECT GUTENBERG™ concept and trademark. Project Gutenberg is a registered trademark, and may not be used if you charge for an eBook, except by following the terms of the trademark license, including paying royalties for use of the Project Gutenberg trademark. If you do not charge anything for copies of this eBook, complying with the trademark license is very easy. You may use this eBook for nearly any purpose such as creation of derivative works, reports, performances and research. Project Gutenberg eBooks may be modified and printed and given away—you may do practically ANYTHING in the United States with eBooks not protected by U.S. copyright law. Redistribution is subject to the trademark license, especially commercial redistribution.

1.F.

1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project Gutenberg™ collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg™ electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain “Defects,” such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by your equipment.

1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the “Right of Replacement or Refund” described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project Gutenberg™ trademark, and any other party distributing a Project Gutenberg™ electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further opportunities to fix the problem.

1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you ‘AS-IS’, WITH NO OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.

1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.

1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone providing copies of Project Gutenberg™ electronic works in accordance with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production, promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg™ electronic works, harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg™ work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg™ work, and (c) any Defect you cause.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg™

Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org.

Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or federal tax identification number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state’s laws.

The Foundation’s business office is located at 809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up to date contact information can be found at the Foundation’s website and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate.

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg™ electronic works

Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.

Most people start at our website which has the main PG search facility: www.gutenberg.org.

This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™, including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
