Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Brilliant. Wry, darkly comic...constantly engaging and entertaining." - Jake Arnott"What makes this book so appealing is that you can read it on three levels. As a tale of bawdy exploits with enlisted men, it skirts the fringes of highbrow gay porn. It can also be read as a thoughful critique of masculinity and the urban gay lifestyle, scaterred with witty epigrams that are pure entertainment. Equally engagingly, it is a story about the relationship between the writers who, encountering misfortune in love, come to realise the value of friendship" -Peter Tatchell, Guardian

Reseña del editor:

A chance letter speaks off a transatlantic literary romance between two writers, one British, one American, in which they share their unhealthy and unfashionable passions for military men, cruising and cats. Mark Simpson reveals the slow collapse of his hopeless relationship with a serving Royal Marine and the outrages response to 'Anti-Gay'; while Steven Zeeland chronicles his doomed attachment to his psycho-Marine boyfriend and his love-triangle rivalry with Andrew Cunanan, gay serial-killer and Gianni Versace's assassin. Funny, insightful and scandalous, "The Queen Is Dead" will outrage some and make others laugh out loud.
