A Sense of Loss and other stories Martin Foreman
This collection of fifteen short stories displays a counterpoint of different voices, each with a ring of authenticity. Some reflect the shifting kaleidoscope of gay reality in 1990s Britain: the sexual compulsion of "Room With No View", the high-energy rhythm of "Discotheque", or the cyncial manipulation of "Simon's Dinner Party". Others take us to wider horizons - to Brazil and off into landscapes of allegory and myth. Finally, in the masterful title story, we hear the voice of Thomas Mann's silent Tadzio as he relates his encounter in Venice with the writer Aschenbach. "Accomplished, literate, dignified, deeply felt" Times Literary Supplement, London "as delicate and haunting a piece of prose as I've read all year" Him (now Gay Times / GT) "Martin Foreman has an uncomfortable, probably accurate view of the human condition; an excellent book" IQ More reviews ISBN: 978 0 85449 185 8 186 pages paperback; £6.99 Buy now (post free) We accept payment via paypal and also with most major credit cards (no paypal account needed)
