Along his journey, he meets a number of characters who share with him stories, wisdom and homosexual encounters. The most popular erotic gay book of the 1960s and 1970s, \u003ci\u003eSong of the Loon\u003c\/i\u003e was the inspiration for two sequels, a 1970 film of the same name, at least one porn movie and a parody novel called \u003ci\u003eFruit of the Loon\u003c\/i\u003e. Unique among pulp novels of the time, the gay characters in \u003ci\u003eSong of the Loon\u003c\/i\u003e are strong and romantically drawn, which has earned the book a place in the canon of gay American literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith an introduction by Michael Bronski, editor of \u003ci\u003ePulp Friction\u003c\/i\u003e and author of \u003ci\u003eThe Pleasure Principle\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLittle Sister's Classics is a new series of books from Arsenal Pulp Press, reviving lost and out-of-print gay and lesbian classic books, both fiction and nonfiction.
