I only knew three of these and I am swiftly adding the other two to my reading list. It makes me realise that we need more queer stories set in the southern part of Italy though. They are always set in Milan, Venice, Turin, Florence, Rome. I need to roll up my sleeves and write those stories myself if I want to read about southern cities, I reckon.
Thanks for the heads up. I’ll have to check some of these out.
May I add Robert Ferro’s THE BLUE STAR, an achingly beautiful novel of the affair of a young American and a young man in Florence? From 1985.
