The Body and Its Dangers and Other Stories by Allen Barnett
Requirements: ePUB/MOBI Reader, 382 KB
Overview: Allen Barnett (1955-1991) was an American author, activist and educator. This, his only book, is widely regarded as one of the most artistically significant depictions of gay life at the height of the AIDS crisis. What is so difficult to understand but life, and what is life but the body and its dangers? Allen Barnett has written an extraordinarily accomplished collection of short fiction, stories about the risks of desire, the pain of early pregnancy, the sullen yearning of unrequited love, the devastation of AIDS and its remedies. These are stories of people caught between memory and desire, stories of mothers and children, new lovers and old friends, stories that shine with a clear-eyed recognition that we are all fugitives in life and strangers to one another, even as they celebrate the precious, momentary security we find in one another’s bodies.
