Synopsis

"Homosexuality as a subject of fiction is as old as 'The Epic of Gilgamesh.' But in the past decade or so, fiction has begun to reflect the emerging feeling of homosexually-inclined men and women that we are a people, not like other peoples to be sure, but nevertheless with our own history, traditions, art and folkways."The stories in On The Line are diverse in many ways, but united in the commitment of their authors to tell the truth about sexuality no less than about anything else. I consider all the authors represented, whatever the extent of their personal involvements, to be a valuable part of the movement for gay liberation. Their talent, honesty and independence are among that movement's greatest assets."(from the Introduction by Ian Young)
