Browning, Frank The Culture of Desire : Paradox and Perversity in Gay Lives Today (Vintage)
Vintage March 29, 1994 0-679-75030-4 / 9780679750307 Paperback Very Good
A former National Public Radio reporter who covered the AIDS epidemic, Brow ning has produced a biting portrait of contemporary gay society. Writing as both observer and participant, he meticulously and perceptively probes iss ues of queer activism, sexuality, spirituality, family, and community. In c ontrast to Gilbert Herdt's Gay Culture in America ( LJ 12/91), this book op enly questions the existence of a gay culture in the United States. Does th e urban gay lifestyle constitute a culture comparable to those of such raci al and ethnic minorities as African Americans, Hispanics, and Jews, asks th e author, or is it a transitory phenomenon? Browning also examines the impa ct of the AIDS epidemic upon the survival of gay culture. His analysis of g ay society will prove a definitive resource for future research on gay cult ure in America.
