Can you recommend some Anthony Kongphan's gay novels?

Since I'm not familiar with his specific works, it's hard to say. But common themes in gay novels often include love, identity, acceptance, and the challenges of coming out.

I'm not sure if Anthony Bourdain actually wrote crime novels. He was more known for his works related to food and travel. However, if he did write any in a less - known capacity, I'm not familiar with them.

'Phineas Finn' is among his best works. It follows the political career of the titular character. It gives insights into the political world of Trollope's era, with all its rivalries, ambitions, and the impact on personal lives.

There might be a novel by Anthony Dewar that is set in a historical period. In such a novel, he could be exploring the culture, society, and events of that time. For example, if it's set in the Victorian era, we might expect to see descriptions of the strict social hierarchies, the fashion of the time, and the emerging technologies. His characters would be influenced by these historical factors and their actions and decisions would be shaped by the context of the era.

Since Anthony Bourdain was mostly known for food and travel, not crime novels, I can't recommend any such works of his.

Another interesting one is 'The Source of Magic'. In this novel, the story delves deeper into the magical aspects of Xanth. There are more complex spells and magical creatures introduced, which makes it an exciting read for those who love fantasy. It shows how the magic in Xanth is not just about simple tricks but has a deeper origin and purpose.

One well - known gay 80's novel is 'Maurice' by E. M. Forster. It was written earlier but gained more recognition in the 80s. It tells a story of a young man's journey in understanding his homosexuality.

One well - known 1950s gay novel is 'The City and the Pillar' by Gore Vidal. It was quite controversial at the time for its open exploration of homosexuality.

Yes, 'Gone Bamboo' is another fiction book by Anthony Bourdain. It takes readers on a wild ride, filled with unique characters and a plot that weaves through different settings. It shows his ability to create vivid fictional scenarios.

One of his well - known short stories is 'The Two Heroines of Plumplington'.
