Guillaume Dustan' first three novels, published in French between
1996 and 1998, describing the narrator's sexual odyssey through a
Paris still haunted by AIDS. This volume collects a suite of three
wildly entertaining and trailblazing short novels by the legendary
French anti-assimilationist LGBTQ+ writer Guillaume Dustan.
Published sequentially in France between 1996 and 1998, the three
novels are exuberant and deliberately affectless accounts of the
narrator's sexual odyssey through a Parisian club and bath scene
still haunted by AIDS. In My Room (1996) takes place almost
entirely in the narrator's bedroom. The middle volume, I'm Going
Out Tonight (1997) finds him venturing out onto the gay scene in
one long night. Finally, in Stronger Than Me (1998) the narrator
reflects on his early life, which coincided with the appearance and
spread of the AIDS virus in France. A close contemporary of Dennis
Cooper, Brett Easton Ellis, Kevin Killian, and Gary Indiana,
Guillaume Dustan's deadpan autofiction is at once satirical and
intimate, and completely contemporary.
