Description:
While laid up in a veteran's hospital during World War II, Laurie Odell falls in love with an innocent, young conscientious objector serving as an orderly. However, when a mentor from Laurie's schoolboy days reappears and introduces Laurie to a circle of world-weary gay men, Laurie is faced with a choice between innocence and experience. Originally published in 1959. The Charioteer is a bold, unapologetic portrayal of male homosexuality during World War II that stands with Vidal's The City and the Pillar and Isherwood's Berlin Stories as a monumental work in gay literature.
