2-0 out of 5 stars Best book to give to someone you hate.
A friend of mine purchased this book at a library for two dollars. Those two dollars are what we like to call "The best worst 2 dollars ever spent". This book is horrible. Horrible in writing, plot, and character development. The things that happen in this book are so overreacted, disgusting, and unnecessary that it deems this book unworthy to read, in fact "The Other World" should be cast into a deep pit. Even then the monsters down there would find it. On that note, it's also really funny in a disgusting, horrible, unredeeming way. Raphael is about an aspiring rich transvestite teen, who has an evil relationship with his limo driver. Halloween Day (or whatever it's called) is about vampires from what I can gather. I forgot some of the other names of the stories, but my favorite one is about a kid who rapes his victims in a variety halloween masks, and then performs a coup d'etat on himself while wearing a rambo mask.
5-0 out of 5 stars superb lit
I loved this book.Wynne has a cool, easy, intelligent, original style, unencumbered by the obvious ego that mucks up so many books.He loves his characters, doesn't sentimentalize or trivialize them, just lets us knowwhat's going on in their heads without judgment, superimposed morality orhigh-flown drama -- these excellent stories show humanity in all itsweirdness, beauty and multi-dimensionality.More, please.

2-0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
The review from Booklist promises much. All the subjects mentioned in the review are indeed there, but somehow the author managed to make them much less interesting than they could be. Maybe it really is SOMETIMES funny,but I'd rather read Irvine Welsh's Acid House or Ecstasy. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars A DOG, A GLASS OF WINE, A FIREPLACE...REQUIRED FOR THIS BOOK
THE GAY DECAMERON is one of those books that requires that you have time to read with purpose.Ideally, this book should be read in a personal library, with a roaring fireplace, a glass of fine wine at hand, and a loyal dog curled up at your feet.Why? Because it is one of those artistic works that should be savoured.Why?Simply because of its intricate construction.I had misgivings when I contemplated reading it, and indeed, questioned if I could dedicate the time needed to fully absorb the content.I'm very glad I opted to devote the time. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Bueno Gay latino FIction
I read this book a couple of years ago and I will always remember it as an excellent anthology of gay Latino writing.The abstract "My Name, Multitudinos Mass" by Larry la Fountain-Stokes is the weakest in the bunch.I recommended this anthology to my G&L book group who was very impressed with the the writing.Highly recommended, I don't think you'll be disappointed.I do think several so called "gay writers" could take lessons in effective story telling from the authors in this collection.

2-0 out of 5 stars Lack of Consistency
This book is one of the weakest collections of stories I've ever read.Painted Leaf Press has a habit of throwing out half-baked stories.It's called Editor.Get one.Many of these stories had great potential, but lacked execution. Others were just cliche.Emanuel Xavier paints a nice story.but his words on the page are flat, flat, flat.The strongest, most complete stories are by a group of San Francisco writers:Jaime Cortez, Joel Villalon and Al Lujan.They have even stronger pieces in another book that came out a year after this one:Virgins, Guerrillas and Locas.You'd be better served getting that book instead. it has a better cover too.

5-0 out of 5 stars BESAME MUCHO (como si fuera la ultima vez!)
Do you want to cry, do you want to fall in love, con un macho muy macho.Or do you want to see what it's like Livin La Vida de una Loca? If you do this is the book for you. Filled with la vidas Latino-Gay style!A must read for all the LOCAS that are "out" there. ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars Dark But Well Done
Ordered because I like Jay Quinn's _Back_Where_He_Started_, I found the stories in _Rebel_Yell_ to be diverse and dark with a couple of uplifting tales. Of the 14 only a few were memorable: "The Wilds" where a lighthouse and oleander figure prominently, "The Pump Jockey" with an implausible ending where the character does an about-face and the magnanimity of twins raises an eyebrow, and, of course, "465 Acres", Jay Quinn's own contribution. Ah, romance! I was reminded of my own upbringing in the South and could certainly identify with some of the expressions used and customs cited--although I have never eaten grits. Must be a SouthEast thing rather than a Texas thing. If you like dark, you'll like this compilation.

1-0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your time or money
A very repetitive collection: about 80 % of the stories are about stereotypically "gay" boys and the Liza Minelli shows they do, or about how they get beaten up by their parents. Nearly all stories are set in the 1960s and 70s and read like some kind of childhood/youth recollection.
4-0 out of 5 stars Some Good Stories Here
Jay Quinn publishes here 14 stories by, in his words, "contemporary Southern gay authors." He doesn't clarify whether or not the writers, in order to be included in this anthology, had to be born in the South or just live there. It is impossible to tell from the brief bios of the writers if some of them meet either of these requirements, if indeed, those are the requirements for inclusion. Some of these stories are not very good, some of them are so-so-- since being polite is an innate Southern characteristic-- I won't name the stories I didn't care for-- and two or three of them are first class. Almost all the writers-- regardless of their abilities-- discuss what makes Southerners different and point out the uniqueness of Southern gays. For example, there is an emphasis on family, a greater amount of prejudice against anyone different, an identification with masculine men; and Southern gays-- at least until very recently-- were probably more prone to remain in the closet and lead double lives, at least in small Southern towns. Of course fundamentalist Christianity is the dominant religion in much of the South as well.Read more
