é una antologia. Questo è il blurb: As such literary movements as interstitial and slipstream gain momentum, more and more authors interweave their traditional stories with gay themes as coming out, homophobia, and self-as-other, with a bit of the strange and weird. Named after one of the founding fathers of gay speculative fiction, Wilde Stories is a new annual anthology that offers readers the best of such stories from the prior year. Editor Steve Berman, a finalist for both the Lambda Literary and Andre Norton Awards, has collected an engaging selection of the fantastical, the strange, and the scary from such notable authors as Victor J. Banis, Hal Duncan and Lee Thomas.

Col tempo sempre più autori inseriscono tematiche omosessuali nelle loro storie, parlando di coming out, omofobia e autocoscienza mescolando il tutto con un po' di cose strane. Questo libro, il cui titolo è dedicato ad uno dei padri fondatori della letteratura omosessuale "paranormale", Wilde Stories è una nuova antologia annuale che offre ai lettori il meglio di tali storie. Steve Berman, l'editore, finalista sia del Lambda Literary che dell'Andre Norton Awards, ha raccolto una avvincente selezione di storie fantastiche, strane e spaventose di autori importanti come Victor J. Banis, Hal Duncan e Lee Thomas.
