A Heaven of Words
Last Journals, 1956–1984
Glenway Wescott
Edited and with an introduction by Jerry Rosco

“A frank and insightful collection of later journals from a brilliant gay writer and Lost Generation survivor. Full of literary and sexual anecdotes, wise ruminations on the writer’s craft, and poignant reflections on growing older as a writer and a lover of men, A Heaven of Words shows Wescott’s Haymeadows home to be a microcosmic, literary Downton Abbey.” —Kevin Bentley, author of Wild Animals I Have Known: Polk Street Diaries and After

The Beauty of Men Never Dies
An Autobiographical Novel
David Leddick

“"We don't have many voices with 70-plus years of experience to tell us what life and romance is like for a gay man at that age, but David Leddick has always defied expectations—never retiring, always reinventing himself. We are richer for having his voice to tell us what he sees from the vantage—advantage, actually—of his vibrant age, tall, proud, and ever wondering." —Tom Bianchi, author of Men I've Loved
