This book examines the working lives, retirement plans, and old age
experiences of three generations of gay men born 1924-86. It draws
on data collected from interviews with 82 men in Australia,
England, New Zealand, and USA. The first half of the book
concentrates on the men's working lives, while the second half of
the book explores the interviewees' concerns about old age and
retirement. The author analyses the men's contrasting stories,
highlighting key generational differences in their experience of
being 'out' in the workplace and the dominant work narratives which
emerge in each age group. This important work will have
cross-disciplinary appeal to scholars of sociology, gerontology,
health sciences, gender, queer, and gay and lesbian studies, as
well as practitioners.
