Vanishing Rooms: A Novel par Melvin Dixon

Set in the mid '70s, this is the story of dancers who experiment with sensuality, and how desire could take you into violence. Jesse's lover Metro is murdered by a New York gang, and a female dancer tries to soothe him. One of the young gang members becomes attracted to him. Dixon's psychological insight into gay culture is exciting.
