College Dive Bar, 1 AM: Stories

"College Dive Bar, 1AM" was selected as a Lambda Literary Awards finalist for Best Gay Erotica, 2016.



It’s on the south end of campus, the part of town they don’t take you on the campus tour. There are always people here, on stools or around the pool table or sidled up to the bar, and they’ve all got stories to tell….



Natty Soltesz, incomparable author of hot and porny gay erotic fiction, including the Lambda Literary Award finalist Backwoods, offers glimpses into the seedier side of college life. In this story collection, weight-lifting bros ditch the protein shakes and bulk up on sperm; broke frat boys try to save their house by enrolling in an unorthodox research study; and, in the name of fairness and responsibility sharing, four roommates negotiate who drains whose balls on a regular basis. This is Soltesz at his best, taking archetypal porn scenarios and enlivening them with humanism, humor, and damn fine writing.
