Book Description
Growing up gay or lesbian is difficult enough, but having no literature which exemplifies this lifestyle sends a clear message to every gay little girl and boy that they should remain invisible. All fairytales scream heterosexuality. Just once, I'd love to see Cinderella bump into Snow White's glass coffin on the way to the ball, give her that proverbial kiss and live happily ever after in lesbian bliss. This is the basis of my book Sticks and Stones. These are four gender bending fairytales affirming that all lives are sacred and all love is good. There is no preaching, no weak females waiting to be rescued by the handsome prince, and no two dimensional men without flaws. These are the gay community's politically correct fairytales. Complete with battles, monsters and magic potions they will keep both adults and children waiting to see what happens next.

Since the Renaissance, it has been generally accepted that almost all Roman sculptures depicting ideal figures were copies of Greek originals. This text traces the origin of this idea to the academic belief in the mythical perfection of now-lost Greek art.

Book Description
Robert Graves (1895-1985) was one of the greatest poets and polymaths of the twentieth century, whose long life matched the intensity of his imaginative output. From his distinguished exploits in the First World War, described in his memoir GOODBYE TO ALL THAT, to his dramatic relationships with women, most notably the American poet and essayist Laura Riding, his life was one of extremes: he sought pain, took huge emotional risks, and lived as if each day were his last. First published to mark the centenary of his birth, Miranda Seymour's acclaimed biography was written with the full co-operation of the Graves family. Her interviews and correspondence with many people who have not previously discussed Graves in public contribute to a rich and complex portrait of a troubled man and a great creative artist. "I have never been able to understand the contention that a poet's life is irrelevant to his work," Graves said. Miranda Seymour puts Graves's statement to the test in this superb biography and, thrillingly, demonstrates its validity.
