THE SCARLET PANSY Robert Scully (perhaps attributable to writer Robert McAlmon) |
|
1952, though text was originally published in 1933 by William Faro 223 pp. |
|
This is an important work in the history of gay literature, emerging in the heat of what was known as "the Pansy craze" of the late 1920s in which gay men and women began to be more visible in the mjaor American cities. The novel traces the life of Fay who drifts into sexual misadventures, is outcast and finds fulfilling life on the fringes of society. It is bolder in its descriptions of gay culture than most literary works dared at the time. | |
VERY GOOD PLUS WITHOUT ITS DUST JACKET Hardcover with wear to boards, lightly tanning pages, spine and contents are intact and for the most part very clean. A very nice copy of this hard-to-find gay literary / erotic work. |
