THE OTHER WORLDStories by John Stewart Wynne(Lambda Literary Award nominee Best Gay Fiction for his novel THE RED SHOES) "One of the best books of the decade." (The James White Review) "A book to handle with asbestos gloves but well worth the walk through fire." (Paul Monette, National Book Award winner) "This is an incredibly powerful book." (Rebecca Brown, Lambda Literary Award winner)***"Have you ever had a message from The Other World?" Peopled with sociopaths, circus performers, a cross-dressing teenager, a prostitute and her pimp, and God-fearing families, these stories have a hallucinatory edge, making the everyday seem like another world. The Other World In this dark satire, a Christian right family is so concerned about sheltering their teenage son from homosexuality that they're oblivious to the fact he's the neighborhood rapist. Nameless Thing In this Texas circus, three into two don't go. A triangle involving a dwarf, a friendly costume designer, and her surly lover ends in tragedy above the banks of the Rio Grande. Raphael Raphael, a cross-dressing teenage boy, spends the Christmas holiday at the Plaza Hotel in New York with his high-strung mother ... but can only think of his romantic fantasies about the family chauffeur. Lights of Broadway A Times Square prostitute discounts the violent threats her john makes against a hit queer musical down the street from her apartment ... with devastating consequences. Halloween Card A drug-fueled loft party for Manhattan hipsters ends up in a surprising location come the dawn. Vulture In the Deep South, an aimless drifter kills his girlfriend and tries to hide her body in a well ... but he's not alone. He's being watched by a young girl.
