DESCRIPTION:Note location: Dog Eared Books - 489 Castro Street, SF, CA 94114\n\nThe 
 Green Arcade and Ithuriel’s Spear Present Gay Sunrise, with editor James 
 Mitchell and contributors Bruce Boone and Bob Glück.\n\nGay Sunrise is a 
 collection of work by 32 writers and artists published originally by the 
 Hoddypoll Press, a San Francisco small press cheerfully agitating for gay 
 liberation as early as 1968. The book insists that advancing the dual gay 
 lib imperatives—gay is good and we all must come out right now—started 
 in San Francisco's gay hippie era well before Stonewall. Gay cultural 
 historian Gregory Woods writes: "This is a terrific anthology, bursting 
 with juicy verse and prose. It's cheerful and tearful, innocently dirty, 
 and richly evocative of a time of great energy and hope." Kevin Killian 
 reminds that "Gay Sunrise brings us the work of many San Francisco based 
 poets (and a few celebrated outliers, like Ginsberg and Giorno) who wrote 
 frankly about gay male sexuality in a time when to do so was quite 
 dangerous," while Eric Sneathen enthuses that "charming, erotic, 
 delightful, Gay Sunrise recalls San Francisco as the epicenter of a global 
 phenomenon of politics and aesthetic sensibility: something so new, so 
 fragile, and so bright."\n
