For the Pleasure of His Company: An Affair of the Misty City, Thrice Told | Charles Warren Stoddard

so-so

Odd, disjointed and mostly unsuccessful, but an important artifact of gay American lit (1903 - coded but obvious enough). Stoddard had friendly relations with Mark Twain, William Dean Howells, and Rudyard Kipling among others.
