The Mirror of Love is pretty nice; it's basically the entire history of gayness in one long poem.

>While life endures we'll love,
>and afterwards, if what they say is true,
>I'll be refused a Heaven
>crammed with popes, policemen, >fundamentalists,
>and burn instead,
>quite happily,
>with Sappho, Michelangelo
>and you, my love.

>I'd burn throughout eternity
>with you.

Not so much a book as one long poem, but it's comfy and sad and beautiful all at the same time

Not a story in the traditional sense, more an illustrated poem, but it's got the entire history of gayness and is pretty poignant at the end

GOAT illustrated poem, written in the 80s when AIDS and Thatcher were rampant. Alan Moore knows the score.
