ed. by Steve Berman

The latest edition of Wilde Stories, once more edited by Steve Berman, promises readers a range of imaginative gay-themed fiction culled from the prior year. These are tales that range from the horrific to the surreal to the fantastical. Many of the authors included have won awards for their fiction, and their stories seek to press new boundaries of loneliness, loss and love between men and monsters (and those men who happen to be monsters).

"Every single piece in the collection has a very distinct voice, and together they range across a wide spectrum of moods, styles, and settings.... Wilde Stories promises the reader the year's best gay speculative fiction, and delivers a very impressive selection indeed." - Rainbow Reviews

"These eleven stories display a match made in heaven and, on occasion, consummated in hell: speculative / slipstream literature conflated with a queer/LGBT sensibility." - CHROMA, A Queer Journal

"Different people, different worlds, but people are still people. Wilde Stories 2009: The Year's Best Gay Speculative Fiction is a collection of short fiction that editor Steve Berman holds to be the best gay Science Fiction and Fantasy, as these tales present a perspective of gay life while still being fine science fiction and fantasy in their own rights. Wilde Stories 2009 is a choice pick for those looking for short gay fiction, or simply science fiction and fantasy." - Midwest Book Review
