I think I'm too stupid for this thread. :-\
Maybe if I reread it another 100 times I'll understand it a little. :P ... :)

I have read your blog, David, and I know you are not "stupid." "The Last of the Wine" is a novel written by British author Mary Renault. It is set in ancient Greece and has lots of gay themes and characters.
Grab a copy from your local bookstore or library and join our Book Club. We're only up to chapter 2, so there's plenty of time to catch up. Alternatively, you may prefer to just follow the thread. It's fun!

thanks , Professor Kerry , for your enthusiasm and intriguing additions and supportive information and insights for this wonderful and lively discussion. I look forward to each post " lecture" eventhough I am sitting in the back of the lecture room admiring you and your expertise. Will you be using an overhead projection for visuals of the people, places and things ? What a handsome professor we have for this wonderful course in classical civilization !!!
