Some universal wisdom from rarely-heard gay male elders
|
|
I happened upon this book 3 years ago, and savoured it as slowly as I possibly could. If you've ever regretted that queer men have never had the spiritual/emotional leadership that's existed in the lesbian/womens sphere for decades, this book could be for you. In Gay Soul, rarely-heard voices of gay male elders are finally collected here together in a much-needed outpouring of thought-provoking wisdom and heart-opening reflection. These days I look back on the book and question some of the hyper-spirituality and the more out-there ideas (i.e. that we are especially gifted as gay men, and that we have specific roles); however, I'd still recommend it to ANYONE because there's so much in this book to inspire and re-awaken anyone who needs a serious shot of soul. My advice to the malaised: read this book and soak it up, and then stop reading and DO something!
