Sunny words
What better way to beckon second glances this summer than with a book that signals your profound sophistication? Then again, how about a work you can still make sense of while sipping cocktails at the pool? To spare you the homework of finding the best books for your mood, wallet, and barbecue chatter, we asked folks at four of the country's best lesbian and gay bookstores for their predictions about the summer's most-anticipated titles. This short list is the result, with thanks to Philip Rafshoon of Outwrite Books and Coffeehouse in Atlanta, Ed Hermance of Giovanni's Room in Philadelphia, Kim Brinster of New York City's Oscar Wilde Memorial Bookshop, and Jason Galloway at San Francisco's A Different Light Bookstore.
