Short gay love stories
Gay love stories in historical fiction
What was it like to be a male lover man in Paris in 1870? While researching my novel The Beasts of Paris, I couldn’t find much in 19th-century writing about homosexual love, and even later there are strangely not many literary, queer, period-set love stories (shout outs to Sarah Waters and Mary Renault), so I’m pushing the boundaries of both ‘love story’ and ‘historical’ here. All I found in 19th-century accounts is an occasional minor nature – e.g. in Zola’s Nana – or documentary reports of police raids, or porn (thank you, Jack Saul). I delved into novels, paintings and photographs as adv as history. And if my historical period stretches from Ancient Greece to the early 1950s – well, you take what you can get.

‘It was 2009, Branden was in the closet, looking to find a relationship on an online dating site; Stephen, also seeking a relationship replied.
We talked online for several days, then we finally made the leap to meet in person.
