Dieser SM-Klassiker von einem der beliebtesten Pornoautoren Amerikas entstand im Sexboom der späten 1970er Jahre. In den schwulen Kneipen New Yorks ist in den 70ern sexuell so ziemlich alles erlaubt. Mit seinen 25 Jahren, seiner knackigen Figur und seinen eng anliegenden Jeans gehört Jamie im »Mineshaft« zu den begehrtesten Gästen. Ihm fällt es nicht schwer, einen Mann nach dem anderen abzuschleppen. Eines Abends kreuzt Mr. Benson in der Bar auf - ein muskelbepackter Lederkerl, den Jamies Pretiosen anscheinend völlig kalt lassen. Jamies Interesse für diesen nicht alltäglichen Typen ist geweckt. Mr. Benson sucht nach einem Sklaven, der bereit ist, für den Meister alles aufzugeben, sich ihm zu unterwerfen. Nun macht Jamie Erfahrungen, die seine Grenzen von Schmerz, Lust und Liebe sprengen.

Männerschwarm
Die Schwulen von Provincetown in Massachusetts haben noch immer gegen Selbsthass und Diskriminierungen anzukämpfen. Eine große Hilfe in diesem Kampf ist Franny. Der Verlust seiner ersten großen Liebe hat ihn nie losgelassen. Und nun hat sich Franny hoch und heilig geschworen, es nie so weit kommen zu lassen, dass seine Freunde von Angstgefühlen aufgefressen werden- einzig und allein, weil sie schwul sind. Für all diejenigen, die - weil sie anders sind - nicht wissen, wo sie hingehören, will Franny Provincetown zu einem Eldorado für Outsider ausbauen. Dort sollen sie sich jederzeit zuhause fühlen können. Die Community, die er mit aller Kraft zusammenhält, könnte nicht bunter zusammengewürfelt sein: Tunten und Bodybuilder, Ledermänner und Transen. (Also available in the English softcover edition »Franny, the Queen of Provincetown« for € 11,59)

Franny is a proud, protective friend to the gay men of Provincetown, Massachusetts as they fight their battles against self-hatred and ostracism. Haunted by the loss of his first love, Franny vows never to let fear and anger consume those who are hated for being queer. It's his goal to ensure that there is a place in the world for everyone who feelsthey do not belong. First published in 1983, »Franny« was a book of gay heroism and camaraderie in the shadow of the burgeoning AIDS crisis. It can be read with a sense of nostalgia and the knowledge that Franny's dream of a society that accepts gays and lesbians without question is closer to fruition, but far from complete.

In this classic collection of S/M fiction, John Preston brings it back to the basics: a hand on a neck, a boot that needs a spit shine, a trick who leaves with bruises and sweet memories. »I Once Had a Master« combines a hardcore sensibility with rare psychological insight. In »Authenticity«, a top turns down two fawning bottoms in full leather regalia in favor of the sweet-faced novice who offers genuine surrender. In »Pedro«, a college boy has a summer affair with a truck driver and finds himself flirting with other men just to provoke his lover's rage. The lonely bottom in »Interludes« develops his body to perfection, then seeks out the Daddy who will cherish this gift.

All these applicants must be tested, and a larger cast of assistants trained, so that this unforgettable night does justice to its creator and his wicked imagination.
