Books like Growing old disgracefully by Casimir Dukahz

Ernest Hemingway’s classic follows an old Cuban fisherman and his young companion as they battle a massive marlin, exploring themes of endurance, solitude, and the human struggle against nature.

This is the second installment in Dukahz's four-part fictionalized autobiography as an ardent "boysexual." The first was entitled *Asbestos Diary* (NY: Oliver Layton Press, 1966). The subsequent installments, *It's a Boy!* (198?) and *Growing Old Disgracefully* (1986) were published in Amsterdam by Acolyte Press.VICE VERSA is "about" Duke's continued erotic, romantic, and hilarious adventures with early teen boys. Chief among these is Amar--a 13-yr-old, goldenhaired, azure-eyed, sometimes hustler whose growing fondness for Duke gives the novel its last three words: "I love you."

"This volume of original chapters is designed to bring attention to a neglected area of feminist scholarship - aging. After several decades of feminist studies we are now well informed of the complex ways that gender shapes the lives of women and men. Similarly, we know more about how gendered power relations interface with race and ethnicity, class and sexual orientation. Serious theorizing of old age and age relations to gender represents the next frontier of feminist scholarship. In this proposed volume, leading national and international feminist scholars of aging take first steps in this direction, illuminating how age relations interact with other social inequalities, particularly gender. In doing so, the authors challenge and transform feminist scholarship and many taken for granted concepts in gender studies." -- Publisher description.

The first installment in what would become, over the next seventeen years, a four-book "diary" of the author's part-real, part-imagined sexual affairs with teen boys. The book is funny, erotic, and learnedly literary. The subsequent titles of Dukahz's ongoing diary: VICE VERSA, IT'S A BOY, and GROWING OLD DISGRACEFULLY. His only non-diary book, published by Acolyte Press, is SHAKESPEARE'S BOY.
