Anyone read The Colour Purple? It's kind of decent. Has lesbians in it I think.

Picture of Dorian Grey and pretty much anything by Wilde usually has some severely gay undertones, although that's not awfully surprising.

Catullus' poems 50 & 99 are both famously homerotic.

C. P. Cavafy wrote many explicit homoerotic poems.

Andre Gide's 'The Immoralist' and Mann's 'Death in Venice' are both about an awakening of same-sex attraction towards young men.

Mishima's 'Forbidden Colors' deals with the sham marriage of a young gay man.
