From his birth in rural Kentucky during the Great Depression to
his suicide in Manhattan in 1985, Coleman Dowell played many roles.
He was a songwriter and lyricist for television. He was a model. He
was a Broadway playwright. He served in the U.S. Army, both abroad
and at home. And most notably, he was the author of novels that
Edmund White, among others, has called "masterpieces." But Dowell
was deeply troubled by a depression that hung over him his entire
life. Pegged as both a Southern writer and a gay writer, he loathed
such categorization, preferring to be judged only by his work.
Fever Vision describes one of the most tormented, talented, and
inventive writers of recent American literature, and shows how his
eventful life contributed to the making of his incredible art.
