"Heretofore scholars have not been willing—perhaps, even been unable for many reasons both academic and personal—to identify much of the Harlem... Renaissance work as same-sex oriented.... An important book." —Jim Elledge This groundbreaking study explores the Harlem Renaissance as a literary phenomenon fundamentally shaped by same-sex-interested men. Christa Schwarz focuses on Countée Cullen, Langston Hughes, Claude McKay, and Richard Bruce Nugent and explores these writers' sexually dissident or gay literary voices. The portrayals of men-loving men in these writers' works vary significantly. Schwarz locates in the poetry of Cullen, Hughes, and McKay the employment of contemporary gay code words, deriving from the Greek discourse of homosexuality and from Walt Whitman. By contrast, Nugent—the only "out" gay Harlem Renaissance artist—portrayed men-loving men without reference to racial concepts or Whitmanesque codes. Schwarz argues for contemporary readings attuned to the complex relation between race, gender, and sexual orientation in Harlem Renaissance writing.

Gazapo es la novela de un adolescente que acaba de abandonar a su familia. Restringido por la vida de la ciudad, se ve envuelto en los altibajos de tres... amores dificiles, el asedio a la ingenua Gisela, los paseos nocturnos de Mauricio con la corista Bikina, y los escarceos eroticos, quizas imaginarios, de otra pareja. Lo que sucede es tan importante, doloroso y al mismo tiempo tan divertido, que para retenerlo Menelao escribe, hace grabaciones, memoriza y cuando lo expone horas dias, meses despues adquieren ese valor magico de lo que ya no existe. Se rescata asi la picaresca historia de una seduccion. De esta manera, clasica ya de nuestra literatura contemporanea y que ahora se reedita en bolsillo, han dicho: Una obra que rompe la manera mexicana de novelar. Emmanuel Carballo. Esta novela es una brillante celebracion de la comedia de la vida. Para Sainz el placer esta en las personas y su trabajo es un reflejo de estos placeres.
