GAY FICTION ANTHOLOGY INDEX
This is an index to the short stories in gay anthologies; where
there are poems or prose pieces, they have not been indexed. Where
the editor has written a good introduction or foreword, that has been
indexed, as sometimes those are an important statement of philosophy
or summary by the editor of the state of the art of gay writing at
that time. This is a personal collection of books (and some
periodicals) and does not claim to be inclusive.
