Summary:

"This unique collection of poetry by and about gay men explores both
the landscape of twentieth-century (modern and contemporary) literary
verse and the relationships among love, romance, and desire. Eros in
Boystown is highly erotic and sexy, the poets chosen for their
willingness and ability to push poetry to its hottest limits." "In
addition to lively new voices on the poetry scene, contributors
include both living and posthumous masters of contemporary verse: W.
H. Auden, Allen Ginsberg, Jean Cocteau, James Baldwin, and Thom Gunn,
to name a few."--BOOK JACKET.
