HIS2
by Robert Drake with Terry Wolverton
The second volume in an ongoing series (His, 1995) offering 19 previously unpublished stories on gay themes by both new and established writers. The quality, as in any anthology, varies widely; standout pieces include the angry, exact ``Say Goodbye to Middletown,'' by William J. Mann, and David A. Newman's grim ``Ice Cream.'' Overall, a useful survey, stressing the diversity of tone and intention in gay fiction.
