Lovers: The Story of Two Men by Michael Denneny is a landmark 1979 gay biography that captures the private world of two male partners in pre-Stonewall America. Denneny, a pioneering editor, weaves memoir, cultural history and candid interviews to trace how love and sexuality shaped—and were shaped by—mid-century social currents.

This vintage Avon paperback, complete with intimate black-and-white photographs, offers collectors a snapshot of LGBTQ+ life rarely documented at the time. Its 159 pages deliver both personal testimony and broader commentary on gay identity, making it essential for readers of queer history and cultural studies.

The book shows gentle wear commensurate with age: the cover carries light scuffing, the closed page edges display classic foxing, yet the interior remains crisp, unmarked and tightly bound. Clean pages, no writing, no dog-ears—ready for reading or display.

An affordable first edition for enthusiasts of gay memoirs, 1970s counter-culture paperbacks, and American social history.
