Authors A-Z Rechy John City of Night John Rechy March 1998 Paperback From the Inside Flap When John Rechy's explosive first novelnow a classicappeared in 1963, it became a national best-seller and ushered in a new era of gay fiction. Bold and inventive in his account of the urban underworld of male prostitution, Rechy is equally unflinching in his portrayal of one hustling "youngman" and his search for self-knowledge within the neon-lit world of hustlers, drag queens, and men on every kind of make. As the narrator moves from El Paso to Times Square, from Pershing Square to the French Quarter, we get an unforgettable look at life on the edge "One of the major books to be published since World War II."The Washington Post "City of Night is a remarkable book.... Mr. Rechy writes in an authentic jive-like slang: the nightmare existence is explored with a clarity not often clouded by sentimentality... Outlaw: John Rechy Charles Casillo November 2002 Paperback From Publishers Weekly John Rechy's 1963 debut, City of Night, a thinly fictionalized account of his adventures in male hustling from one end of the country to the other, was a milestone in American gay literature. But even as Rechy, who had grown up in the Mexican slums of El Paso, Tex., became a literary darling, he continued having sex for money and went to great lengths to keep his two worlds separate. This biography by L.A.-based journalist and novelist Casillo (The Marilyn Diaries), written with extensive cooperation from his subject, is most engrossing when it focuses on the years immediately before and after that initial success, when Rechy was constantly testing his personal and creative limits. As he makes the transition from dazzling young writer to literary icon, the anecdotes become much less interesting. Casillo doesn't...

I understand it was written in 1963, by a just-turned-adult Rechy, but there's a distinct lack of empathy for the queer characters he writes about; it very much seems he's writing for a str8 audience, despite his interesting use of queer and street slang. It's not until the 2nd last of the stories in this collection of stories (Jeremy: white sheets) that Rechy gains an insight into his own experience and some wisdom. And the last chapter makes having waded through the previous stories, for all their cynical exploitation, ok. As a coming-of-age tale it is beautiful. But it's a story about a perspective on queer life which has very badly dated. As a queer man who has grown up in a ghetto, with all that 90's and naughties queer life has had to offer, Rechy's loathing of, and self-loathing homosexuals, his depictions of pathetic stereotypes, of alcoholic bar-flies and lecherous johns is alien territory.
