Just as E. M. Forster's novel of gay love, Maurice, remained unpublished throughout his lifetime, Glenway Wescott's long story "A Visit to Priapus” was also destined to be a posthumous work, buried Wescott's massive archive of manuscripts, journals, notebooks, and letters. Published here with previously uncollected stories, including three never before published, this offers a candid portrayal of a gifted but enigmatic writer.
