Indivisible

In this daring and timely collection, 24 new writers bring fresh vision to the conflicts of gender, race, and sexuality from the West Coast's literary cutting edge. At a point where lesbians and gay men are moving beyond political division, Indivisible represents unity and the need to transcend human differences. These stories embrace all the manifestations of love and anger, prejudice and fear, passion and lust, in the age of AIDS. And the authors' ethnic backgrounds--including black, Southeast Asian, Latino, and Native American--are as varied as the genres in which they write, such as mystery, mythology, and contemporary and historical fiction. This stunning volume is at once shockingly graphic, scathingly funny, and deeply moving.
