Beschreibung

In 'Ruggles of Red Gap' by Harry Leon Wilson, readers are immersed in a humorous and satirical tale of a British butler who finds himself in a small American town and navigates the eccentricities of the locals. The novel is a sharp critique of early 20th-century American society, showcasing the clash of cultures and the absurdities of social hierarchy. Wilson's writing is witty and insightful, drawing the reader into a world of hilarity and wit reminiscent of Mark Twain and P.G. Wodehouse. Harry Leon Wilson, known for his comedic and satirical works, was influenced by his own experiences in small-town America. His keen observations of human behavior and social norms shine through in 'Ruggles of Red Gap,' making it a timeless classic that continues to entertain readers to this day. I highly recommend 'Ruggles of Red Gap' to anyone looking for a delightful and thought-provoking read. Wilson's clever storytelling and sharp wit make this novel a must-read for fans of satire and humor, offering a unique perspective on the nuances of class and culture.

    “A book of major historical importance—the first contemporary novel to chronicle gay life with unsparing honesty and wild humor.”—Erica Jong   In print since its original publication in 1978, Larry Kramer’s Faggots has become one of the bestselling novels about gay life ever written. The book is a fierce satire of the gay ghetto and a touching story of one man’s desperate search for love there, and reading it today is a fascinating look at how much, and how little, has changed.   “As a documentation of an era, as savage and savagely funny social parody, as a cry in the wilderness, and as a prescient, accurate reading of the writing on the wall, the novel is peerless and utterly necessary. It is brilliant, bellicose, contemptuous, compassionate and—as is true of everything Kramer writes—behind its delectable, entertaining, sometimes maddening harshness is a profoundly moving plea for justice and for love. There are few books in modern gay fiction, or modern fiction for that matter, that must be read. Faggots is certainly one of them.”—Tony Kushner “A Vesuvian explosion about the gay life that spares no one and no thing . . . there is much truth and honesty to be found here.”—Chicago Tribune  “True comic brilliance—a vicious Swiftian satire that, like all satire, contains a strong moral voice.”—New York  “Faggots, for all its excesses, is frequently right on target and, when it is on target, is appallingly funny.”—Edward Albee  “Larry Kramer is one of America’s most valuable troublemakers. I hope he never lowers his voice.”—Susan Sontag
