520 _aAura gathers together in one volume the best gay-themed short stories and novel excerpts from the Philippines' best fictionists in English. As the critical introduction puts it, ascertaining the presence of the "gay theme"--which is to say, the literary imaging of male homosexuality in our country's anglophone traditions--is strictly a matter of textual interpretation, which needs to be mindful of historical context. Includes works by Jose Garcia Villa, Nick Joaquin, Edith L. Tiempo, Ophelia Alcantara-Dimalanta, Gilda Cordero Fernando, R. Zamora Linmark, Ninotchka Rosca and Bino A. Realuyo, among other prominent Filipino literary names.
