Title: Cruelty Without Beauty
Review: This book is not without its pleasures. Harris writes with a breathless malice that is sometimes hysterical, in every sense of the word. But his targets are easy ones, and his jeremiads are for the most part devoid of nuance. Ultimately, it seems that everything that was GOOD about gay culture just happened to coincide with Harris's lost youth. Before the 1970's everything gays did was an example of their all-encompassing self-hatred; since the 1970's, everything gays do is crass, commercial, and rabidly assimilationist. These themes have been tackled more intelligently in other works, e.g. Mark Simpson's "Anti-gay." Sadly, by the last pages of "Rise and Fall" one cannot help but see Daniel Harris as an angry unloved child locked out in the rain, hammering snails on the sidewalk.
