Résumé
Back in print for the first time in decades, this stylish classic of 1970s queer literature follows a Greenwich Village-based children's book author who avidly participates in the era's sexual freedoms while privately nursing a desire for oblivion. Named one of the "25 Most Influential Works of Postwar Queer Literature" by The New York TimesThere may be no one living in Greenwich Village more filled with life than Terry Andrews.
He has a thriving career as a children's book author, he frequents the gym and the opera, he has not one but three regular romantic partners. He can spin a yarn; he's irresistible. Yet Terry yearns for oblivion; he is on the hunt for death. Then into his life arrives Barney, an altogether unpleasant young boy who is looking for a father figure-and for more stories about Harold, the hero of Terry's books.
Will the grudging friendship that grows between the two be enough to pull Terry back from his flirtation with that ultimate lover-Thanatos?Terry Andrews, the name of the purported author of The Story of Harold, was in fact the pen name of George Selden, himself the author of the Newbery Honor-winning children's book A Cricket in Times Square. When Selden died in 1989, he left behind this remarkable novel, one that Edmund White called "the earliest document that renders the feel of Downtown Village gay life in the 1970s .
