Shade: An Anthology of Fiction by Gay Men of African Descent

In the Black gay literary tradition that includes such gifted American writers as James Baldwin, Langston Hughes, and Countee Cullen, Shade is the first anthology devoted exclusively to fiction by contemporary Black gay writers. Powerful and often stunning, the stories in Shade are so brilliant they will cast a long shadow for years to come.
