To support his argument, Meyers illuminates the character and creative process of a range of authors of the period, including Wilde, Gide, Proust, E.M. Forster and T.E. Lawrence, and analyses the sexual problems that were sublimated and transcended in their art."--Provided by publisher.Bloomsbury academic collections.Gender studies.Homosexuality and literatureLiterature, Modern20th centuryHistory and criticismGay people's writingsHistory and criticismLiterary studies: generalbicsscHomosexuality and literature.Literature, ModernHistory and criticism.Gay people's writingsHistory and criticism.Literary studies: general809.93353Meyers Jeffrey156053UKMGBCaBNVSLCaBNVSLBOOK9910814298003321Homosexuality and literature3685105UNINA
