THE HOMOSEXUAL IN LITERATURE
A Chronological Bibliography
c.700 B.C.-1958
© COPYRIGHT, 1959.
Village Press First Edition
New York 14, NY
This bibliography provides a chronological listing of all known books
in the English language, in the general field of fiction, concerned
with male homosexuality, or having homosexual characters. It includes
novels, short stories, short novels, poems, drama and fictionalized
biography, plus a few other minor categories.
This bibliography does not include works not in the English language.
It does not include works concerned with female homosexuals (except
where incidentally also involved). It does not include medical or
psychiatric works (e.g., Ellis, Kinsey et al.). It does not include
philosophical studies (e.g., Plato’s, Gide’s Corydon et al.). It
does not include magazine stories, unless subsequently published in
“book” form, but the term “book” is taken to include various types of
“paperbacks”. It does not include ordinary (unfictionalized) biography
or autobiography except when in the “primary” category (see below).
This bibliography is divided into two separate, parallel sections:
_Primary_: Definition: Central character(s) clearly homosexual(s)
and/or homosexuality is intrinsic part of
central theme or network of plots.
The order is chronological by years, alphabetical
by author’s surname within the same year, numbered
consecutively. Short stories are given separate numbers
(even if in the same book) but poems only one for the
whole book. The date is U.S. publication date unless
the work has not yet been published in the U.S. or has
been published elsewhere more than 5 years before U.S.
publication, but in the latter case there is usually
an additional reference to cover U.S. publication. All
citations are novels unless otherwise indicated (SS Short
Stories; P Poetry D Drama; SN Short Novels, etc.)
_Other Than Primary._ (referred to hereafter as OTP)
Definition: All other works not considered as “Primary”,
and differentiated by the following
letter-symbols:
_a_: substantial, explicit dialogue or
exposition involving major homosexual
character(s).
_b_: substantial dialogue or explicit
exposition involving minor homosexual
character(s).
_c_: latent, veiled, repressed or implied
homosexuality of a major character.
_d_: brief, superficial references in dialogue
or exposition, whether involving major or
minor homosexual characters.
_e_: third-person references (character not in
book); latent, veiled homosexuality of
minor character in work of a significant
author.
_f_: false suspicion or accusation, or
self-suspicion.
In some cases, where use of one letter alone
would give an inadequate impression, several
are used in combination, e.g. _c/d_ or
_b&c_. All letter symbols are found on the
OTP listings to the left of applicable work.
The order follows that of the Primary, but
without consecutive numbering.
It does not by any means follow that all works which by definition
are “Primary” are necessarily more significant, even with respect to
substantial homosexual content, than all OTP works. To provide some
further guidance, references (to the left) include the follow asterisk
notations, uniform to both Primary and OTP listings:
*** Very substantial
** Quite substantial, or something of especial interest
* Not very substantial
(no asterisk) Rather negligible
It must be emphasized that literary merit, or interesting material of
a non-homosexual nature, are _not_ prime considerations in determining
the asterisk rating, which refers only to homosexual content.
Reprints are cited wherever known, especially inexpensive paperbacks.
In this connection, the following abbreviations are used:
Pb: Paperback of the conventional size (approximately 4.5 × 7").
Most names are written out (Avon, Signet, Bantam, Popular etc.).
However, where space is limited: Perm is “Permabook”; PB Pocket
Book; PL Pocket Library
Lpb/LPb refers to odd-size cheap paperbacks, popular in the early
1950s, roughly 5.5 × 7.5", with flexible cover (e.g. Universal,
Croydon)
PbO or LPbO indicates work originally published in this format,
with no prior “regular” edition. This is further indicated by
publication date following serial number (not usually given for
paperback reprints).
AFE/ASE refers to a third type cheap paperback, used by Armed Forces.
PC (Paper Covers) indicates “quality paperback” or paperback
original by regular-book publisher in U.S. or Europe. In this
group, MLP stands for Modern Library Paper.
Where the work has been revised or abridged in paperback reprint,
this is indicated, the word “drastically” referring, when used, to
expurgation or revision of the homosexual content.
This bibliography does not include any unchecked “hearsay” works.
Insofar as it may fall short of completeness (through the end of
1958) it is only by mischance, and it is to be hoped that any works
missed are in the less significant categories. The Second Edition
is tentatively scheduled for March, 1961 and in the meantime, the
publisher will be pleased to receive any suggestions for changes or
additions for the next edition. It will be noted that with respect to
new titles in 1959 and 1960, a half-page remains blank in the Primary
section (at the end) and there is a whole page for 1959 and for 1960
which can be filled in by pencil or pen as new titles come to the
reader’s attention.
While the intention has been to be as objective as possible, there
is inevitably an element of personal opinion, both as regards the
asterisk-rating and the distinction between Primary and OTP. As there
are, frankly, a few dozen works which could be considered as falling
into _either_ the Primary or the OTP section on the basis of the
definition used, these will be found to have at the end of the citation
the notation “OTP-x?” when placed in the Primary section, and the
notation “Primary?” when placed in the OTP section.
The chronological arrangement has been chosen in preference to one
alphabetical for two reasons: 1) To provide a convenient picture of
the increase of the number of works in historical perspective (which
is, after all, a chronological one); 2) To make it simple to keep the
bibliography up to date (an alphabetical listing would require revision
as each new work is published). Readers wishing to find all the works
of a well-known author included herein, will in most cases find the
author listed in the Authors’ Index (p. 32); however, even when an
author’s name is not found in this index, the reader will in most cases
know at least the decade of publication, and from that point it will
only require glancing at the appropriate alphabetical position on a few
successive pages to locate the name and work.
In addition to the Authors’ Index, there are four other indexes at
the end of this bibliography, ranging over national locales, special
locales, professions and special occupations, and special topics, roles
etc. The reader will find these indexes very useful, whatever his
special interests may be. The abbreviations applicable to the Indexes
are explained in a note at the beginning of the index section (p. 29).
The sources for this bibliography are of course many, but
acknowledgments are due especially to the following: To Donald Webster
Cory for his pioneer bibliography in _Homosexual in America_, continued
for several years in his book service; to the Village Theater Center,
which has been especially helpful for contemporary British works; to
the Mattachine Society of New York which, in preparing the Mattachine
bibliography (on a somewhat different basis), has acted as a clearing
house for many contributors, especially P.M.
