New review of Best Gay Stories


Richard Lablonte had this this say about Best Gay Stories:

Best Gay Stories 2009


Author Tom Cardamone gave a terrific review of Sea, Swallow Me on Amazon.com. In his words:

Anyone who caught Kara Walker's retrospective at the Whitney was immediately challenged to think about race and art. Her surreal silhouettes carved meaning out of every room. Regardless if the viewer came away with a positive or negative impression, it was obvious that existing concepts had been broken, challenged, expanded and, as someone who was blown away by the show, I would add rightfully so.

Icarus: The Magazine of Gay Speculative Fiction
