Ehhhhh if it counts due to the gay scene probably a-rebours.

And by the way, calling Whitman homosexual, it’s more accurate to say the man was a hardcore onanist, the only man he ever loved was himself, his poetry is after a manner a kind of spiritual masturbation, I do not mean that mockingly but after a manner as a compliment, the sexual play of the parts of himself and his fixation with his own body, his personality as divided from that, his ego divided from that and his soul divided from that, all in all his major theme is the spiritual masturbation of the parts of the self.

In spite of all the flag signalling fags are still a miniscule part of the population. No one carea.

Does this count? My interpretation of this is that the two boy main characters are dating. They read exactly like the way I would expect a dating couple to speak to one another but I don’t think the book ever outright said they were gay or in a relationship. I think they were described as friends but the way the boys speak to one another comes off as romantic.
I could be over analyzing F Gardner’s book but to me this is the impression I got.

American Psycho

Just the perfect encapsulation of America in the second half of the 20th century. Violent gang of bloodthirsty mauraders using the threat or actuality of violence to enforce our economic whims on a global society.

Nicaguran death squads, south american coups backed by the DOD, inner city cops recieving CIA and FBI training so they can continue beating/killing poor minorities with ruthless efficacy, labor movements being put down by large multinational corporations so americans can continue to enjoy cheap products, firebombing vietnemese civilians, etc.

I've always felt Patrick Batemans violence was a fantasy to prevent him from seeing what a god damn boring basic generic rich daddy's boy loser he is, but the violence is still real it's just symbolic of the violence the united states and it's allies inflicted on the rest of the world in the 20th century to ensure everyone plays by our rigged version of capitalism.

And yes for anyone who didnt know Brett Easton Ellis is hella gay.

since I don't want to make a new thread, why did the modern spawned too many gay artists?
I'm not just talking about literature (which itself had Poe, Arthur Rimbaud, Verlaine, Gore Vidal) but also painting (Francis Bacon, Warhol) and music (John Cage, Tchaikovsky).
