5.0 out of 5 stars What a wonderful collection of stories, 22 Oct 2001
By A Customer
Erotic. Blissfully erotic. The title was pleasingly misleading. I bought this alongside Boys of Swithins Hall thinkkiing "Ah well, short trousers it is", but it's short stories intead. Gay short stories. Gay short stories about teenage boys doing what comes so very naturally.

It was a tough book to put down. Compelling, yet each short story complete in itself. A book for a long lonely evening.

I wish there were more of such books in the mainstream publishers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Erotic, explicit and believable stories of sexy teen boys., 21 April 2005
A thoroughly well written book recounting a whole series of truly believable and hotly explicit stories of sexual encounters between young teenage boys and between boys and older men. The author really captures the steamy and obsessive preoccupation of boys with their bodies and often overwhelming sexual desires, gratified in the easiest way possible at that age, with other boys, especially if one is stuck in an all boys school. The book is in no way too American and can be very strongly recommended, particulary if like me you are yourself a "graduate" of an all boy secondary schooling!

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully erotic, 31 Oct 2001
By A Customer
This book contains different styles of short story about boys in erotic love with other boys.

It was a wonderful book to read, particularly because there is so little in this genre. The different styles seemd like experiments for another novel like Boys of Swithins Hall.

The sexual encounters are explicit, and drawn from life. The book was such fun that I recommended it to all my friends. Now I recommend it to you
