'I'm not a gay writer,' chronic contrarian Purdy once said. 'I'm a monster. Gay writers are too conservative.' Being published, he said, was like 'throwing a party for friends and all these coarse wicked people come instead, and break the furniture and vomit all over the house.'

When her urges didn't diminish after its publication, she left her husband, spent some time drying out, and reemerged in 1982 as a disheveled member of the Connecticut College writing faculty, wearing torn jeans, tinted glasses, and what the then–head of the English department called 'the dirtiest shoes he had ever seen,' before spending the next… Leer más
