Books on Monday: Vestal McIntyre's You Are Not The One

It gives me great pleasure to start off the New Year with a page about Vestal McIntyre's 2004 collection of short stories, You Are Not The One (Carroll & Graf). This is the first book  by a contributor to From Boys to Men: Gay Men Write About Growing Up that I've read, and it's a very auspicious beginning.

I wrote to Mr McIntyre when I added his book to the Books on the Side list at Portico, and he wrote back, telling me that he's finishing up a novel set in his native Idaho. He writes so brilliantly about New York City that I couldn't help feeling a little bit disappointed by this news. But the setting doesn't really matter, because the writing is sure to be absolutely top-drawer.

Read about You Are Not The One at Portico.
