BY JASON WHITESEL, PHD

In Fat Gay Men (NYU Press) Whitesel, an assistant professor in the Women’s and Gender Studies Department at the Dyson College of Arts and Sciences, examines what it means “to be fat in a thin-obsessed gay culture,” based on “ethnographic interviews and in-depth field notes from more than 100 events at bar nights, café klatches, restaurants, potlucks, holiday bashes, pool parties, movie nights, and weekend retreats.”

The Tenor BY PETER DANISH ’85 The Tenor (Pegasus Books) is a historical novel centering on the relationship between the young opera diva Marie Callas and a young Italian soldier during the Greek occupation of World War II and in the years that followed. Danish is also the classical music editor-in-chief for the website BroadwayWorldClassical.com.
