First published in 1974, The Front Runner raced to international acclaim - the first novel about gay love to become popular with mainstream.
In 1975, coach Harlan Brown is hiding from his past at an obscure New York college, after he was fired from Penn State University on suspicion of being gay. A tough, lonely ex-Marine of 39, Harlan has never allowed himself to love another man.
Then Billy Sive, a brilliant young runner, shows up on his doorstep. He and his two comrades, Vince Matti and Jacques LaFont, were just thrown off a major team for admitting they are gay. Harlan knows that, with proper training, Billy could go to the '76 Olympics in Montreal. He agrees to coach the three boys under strict conditions that thwart Billy's growing attraction for his mature but compelling mentor. The lean, graceful frontrunner with gold-rim glasses sees directly into Harlan's heart. Billy's gentle and open acceptance of his sexuality makes Harlan afraid to confront either the pain of his past, or the challenges which lay in wait if their intimacy is exposed.
But when Coach Brown finds himself falling in love with his most gifted athlete, he must combat his true feelings for Billy or risk the outrage of the entire sports world - and their only chance at Olympic gold.
还有一点没看完书就不见了。理想情人billy!
评分描写风景的语言很多都很可取,但是有些叙述又比较流水账,最可怕的是作者带入了太多田径和星座的jargon和obsession,显得个人色彩很浓重。很可以想象这样一本出版于70年代的书对当时的lgbt群体有着怎样的抚慰和cathartic的作用,鉴于此,它少许俗套狗血的缺点又可以被原谅了。
评分算是同性恋小说先驱,在那个年代缺乏理解的人是多么令人感到难过。破碎眼镜是几个封面里面我认为比较好的。

评分真没想到京东上还可以买到台湾出版的图书,之前已经买过一本感觉不错,那是横排本,属于游说读物。但台版小说一般都是竖排繁体,作为大陆读者,恐怕阅读速度很难提上去。 阅读这本书的大部分时间里我都很开心:选材大胆、文风细腻,情色小说与经典文学、言情作品和色情小说都...

评分我撇开身后的学生跟着他。“Billy ”,我大喊。他转过头来。我朝他的脸狠狠的扇了一耳光,但是留意不碰到他的眼镜。这一巴掌就像在医院里Patton甩给战士的那有名的一巴掌,完全是为了让他清醒。甚至是Zen Buddhists都甩过巴掌。他们称之为“psychic shock”,让脑子清醒。我打...
