Informationen zum Autor Richard Labonté edits books, walks dogs and works as a chef's assistant at an addiction recovery center on Bowen Island, off the coast of British Columbia, Canada, after living in Los Angeles and San Francisco from 1979 to 2001. One of the founders of A Different Light Bookstore, he has coordinated the judging for the Lambda Literary Award since 2009. He reviews 100 queer books a year for Q Syndicate, which distributes "Book Marks," his fortnightly column and has edited the Best Gay Erotica series since 1996 (along with a couple of dozen other books for Cleis). Eight of his books, including five editions of Best Gay Erotica, have been Lammy finalists, and three of them have won the award. Klappentext Some men like to watch, and some men like to be watched. Some men are real show offs. The universe has a way of balancing things out, doesn't it? We're not talking sidewalk cruising here, that natural inclination for one man to appreciate another man's body in passing, perhaps leading to full-on sex, perhaps fueling, once he's alone, a climactic fantasy. No, the stories in this collection are more furtive: the desired body savored voyeuristically through a window, through a crack in the closet door, through a camera lens, sometimes from right across the room; the body desired flaunting manly wares while bathing in a river, playing in a bathhouse, wearing a leaving-nothing-to-the-imagination thong. Forget "like": some men need to be watched; some men need to watch. These are their stories. Zusammenfassung Some men like to watch! and some men like to be watched. Some men are real show offs.
