Description
Poet James Schwartz combines a mixture of poetry and short stories to describe family troubles, lost love, religion, and even what it's like to take a horse and buggy to a gay nightclub. The Literary Party is an emotional, touching book with implications that extend to any religion or culture where intolerance is prevalent.

Summary
A provocative and eye-opening account of growing up gay and Amish in America.

Excerpt
The Amish are a working set Family farming, factories, logging Canine mills for the Lancaster sect That are not into blogging. They have no use for me Homosexuality, John Updike poetry Literary prosody Or the works of T. Capote. The 21st century has begun Cell phones–now allowed! And tricked out buggies for the young Techno music pumpin’ loud. One day forward, two steps back Through the Shipshewana paparazzi set Selling their wares to the tourist pack Who gaze wonderingly upon the sect.
