"You changed my life" – this is the gist of the fan mail Patricia Nell Warren received following the publication of her New York Times bestseller The Front Runner (1974). This book looks at her life, her Ukrainian poetry and translation of a national epic, her sequels to The Front Runner and the most famous gay movie never made, her other novels, and her many contributions to gay and straight magazines. Homosexuality and sports, Catholic morality, right-wing politics, AIDS, queer families, Native American pride, stewardship of our planet, the conflict between Ukraine and Russia – all those issues remain timely, even several years after the death of a woman who changed so many lives. "This groundbreaking book provides a comprehensive exposition, insightful analysis, and discussion of the impact of Patricia Nell Warren’s life, experiences as well as both her literary fiction and non-fiction. Dr. Endres has written the only book that adequately covers the life and work of Patricia Nell Warren, an author who played a key role in the development and showcasing of the modern gay movement. Without a doubt, this is the definitive book on Patricia Nell Warren. Having known Patricia well for over twenty years, I am aware of her respect for Nikolai Endres and his work and also how pleased and honored she would be with this outstanding volume about her." —John Selig, LGBTQ+ podcaster, activist, photographer, and friend of Patricia Nell Warren
One of the Best Books of 2022NPR • Them • Lit Hub • CrimeReads • Book Riot • Chicago Review of Books“A one-of-a-kind queer horror comedy for people who watch The Bachelor and The X-Files back-to-back.” —Kirkus ReviewsOn this season of The Catch, contestants must compete for love. And their lives.When the final four women in competition for an aloof, somewhat sleazy bachelor’s heart arrive on a mysterious island in the Pacific Northwest, they prepare themselves for another week of extreme sleep deprivation, invasive interviews, and, of course, the salacious drama eager viewers nationwide tune in to devour. Each woman came on The Catch for her own reasons—brand sponsorships, followers, and, yes, even love—and they’ve all got their eyes steadfastly trained on their respective prizes. Enter Patricia, a temperamental and woefully misunderstood local living alone in the dark, verdant woods, and desperate for connection. Through twists as unexpected as they are wildly entertaining, the self-absorbed cast and jaded crew each make her acquaintance atop the island’s tallest and most desolate peak, finding themselves at the center of an action-packed thriller that is far from scripted—and only a few will make the final cut. A whirlwind romp careening toward a last-girl-standing conclusion, and a scathing indictment of contemporary American media culture, Patricia Wants to Cuddle is also a love story: between star-crossed lesbians who rise above their intolerant town, a deeply ambivalent woman and her budding self-actualization, and a group of misfit islanders forging community against all odds.

Patricia Brent, Spinster is humorous novel of life (and love) in war- and privation-hit London.Herbert George Jenkins enkins' parents came from Norfolk and, according to his obituary in The Times, he was educated at Greyfriars College. He began work as a journalist and then spent some 11 years at The Bodley Head before founding his own publishing house in 1912. He remained unmarried and died at the age of 47, on 8 June 1923 after a six-month-long illness, in Marylebone, London(1876 - 8 June 1923) was a British writer and the owner of the publishing company Herbert Jenkins Ltd, which published many of P. G. Wodehouse's novels.In 1912 Jenkins founded his own publishing company: Herbert Jenkins Limited. Its offices were in a narrow, 19th-century building with five floors in Duke of York Street, just off Jermyn Street in London. It was a successful business from the start because of Jenkins' unique ability (at the time) to cater for the ever-changing public taste. He also had a good eye for new talent, not being discouraged if a manuscript had been rejected by other publishers. His publicity methods were innovative, too; with arresting advertisements and dust jackets, and a monthly publication called Wireless, which was widely circulated among his readers. Jenkins' first publication was Willie Riley's first novel Windyridge, and the firm went on to publish most of Riley's 39 books, ending with The Man and the Mountain in 1961, the year of his death. In 1915 Jenkins published A. S. Neill's first book, A Dominie's Log, launching his career as a famous teacher and writer of books on education. Herbert Jenkins Ltd published many of P. G. Wodehouse's novels, starting with Piccadilly Jim in 1918...................... Herbert George Jenkins (1876 - 8 June 1923) was a British writer and the owner of the publishing company Herbert Jenkins Ltd, which published many of P. G. Wodehouse's novels. Biography: Jenkins' parents came from Norfolk and, according to his obituary in The Times, he was educated at Greyfriars College. He began work as a journalist and then spent some 11 years at The Bodley Head before founding his own publishing house in 1912. He remained unmarried and died at the age of 47, on 8 June 1923 after a six-month-long illness, in Marylebone, London. As a writer: Although Jenkins is best known for his light fiction, his first book was a biography of George Borrow. He was an admirer of the poet and visual artist William Blake and conducted research into his trial for high treason and the location of his lost grave, writing a book on him in 1925. His most popular fictional creation was Mr. Joseph Bindle, who first appeared in a humorous novel in 1916 and in a number of sequels. In the preface to the books, T. P. O'Connor said that "Bindle is the greatest Cockney that has come into being through the medium of literature since Dickens wrote Pickwick Papers".The stories are based on the comedic drama of life at work, at home and all the adventures that take place along the way. Jenkins also wrote a number of short stories about Detective Malcolm Sage, which were collected into one book in 1921. Sage has been compared to both Hercule Poirot and Sherlock Holmes in his style of detective work. Three of the Sage stories were included in Eugene Thwings 10-volume collection of vintage detective stories, The World's Best 100 Detective Stories (1929). As was the norm at the time, many of his fictional works appeared first in pulp magazines. Two of his novels and several of his short stories were made into short movies.................
"Patricia of the Green Hills" is a collection of Filipiniana poems and short stories with reflections of life and folkways while growing up in the Philippines. Dr. Ramos never relaxed his own personal pursuit of the Muse and continued to write short stories, poems, and essays. At the same time, he devoted special attention to serious research on Philippine mythology and folklore. All these were done as he taught and performed administrative duties at the Philippine Normal College and later at the University of the East. We know that his legacy will fire the imagination of Filipino students and inspire them to know more about their own heritage, history, folkways and folklore and to write them down for others to enjoy and appreciate.I.
