BORDERLANDS BOY
Love, War and Peace in the Atomic Age
By Ken Carpenter

A personal coming-of-age memoir as well as a coming out story of a gay boy from a conservative family growing up in the U.S. Southwest in an era of political, social and cultural transformation.

This lyrical, moving and intensely personal coming-of-age memoir is also a coming out story of a gay boy from a conservative family growing up in the U.S. Southwest in an era of political, social and cultural transformation. It is also an extended reflection on the importance of place, time, history and geography in shaping who we are and who we become. In post-World War II America, the specter of nuclear destruction and environmental crises, challenges to racism and women’s inequality, the Vietnam War and the sexual revolution threaten to tear the country apart. Already struggling with what it means to be different and what kind of man to become, the author faces the ultimate moral test of courage and conscience when he graduates from college and is drafted to fight in Vietnam. How will he navigate these tumultuous years and what will he learn from his experiences? How can he survive, find love and a purpose in life? And what lessons are there in such a story for future generations in a world without borders?

Ken Carpenter was born in New Mexico, raised in Colorado and lived most of his life in the Southwest. As a student at Colorado State University during the 1960s, he studied history and became active in local civil rights and anti-war efforts. He resisted being drafted to fight in Vietnam and served time in federal prison. On release, he earned a master’s degree at the University of Texas, worked for LGBT rights and was a full-time peace and human rights advocate in the U.S. and Latin America. He met Greg Calvert, formerly a radical leader of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), and they began a relationship that lasted for thirty years. Ken earned a PhD at the University of Oregon and became a college teacher and administrator, specializing in international education. He and Greg set up and ran an educational exchange program and school for children in Granada, Nicaragua. Now retired from the University of New Mexico, Ken lives in Albuquerque, teaching and mentoring students part-time.

CREEP AROUND THE CORNER
A Novel
By Douglas Atwill

A novel of the spy world in Europe during the Cold War years.

Europe in the Cold War years was a dangerous place for Harold Bronson and his buddies, draftees commandeered into espionage and counterintelligence. Their low echelon escapades take them to Berlin, Ulm, the South of France, and Zurich. Bronson chooses this time of his life to explore a personal coming out, creating secrets within secrets in a disapproving military. In his off-time, Bronson paints portraits of the other denizens of Schloss Issel, earning money for trips and adventures to Paris and Nice. Always on the edge of life, he taunts the higher-ups with a light-hearted acceptance of life in the spy world of 1957. Real danger is further off from his circle at the Schloss, but it is an insistent melody they can always hear.

Other books by Douglas Atwill, all from Sunstone Press, are Imperial Yellow, The Galisteo Escarpment and Why I Won’t Be Going To Lunch Anymore. Atwill lives in Santa Fe, painting New Mexico landscapes and gardens from his studio on the city’s Eastside.

Before returning home, he and his friends, Sam and Carrie, rent a cottage on the coast, playing a langorous triangle of seaside sexual attraction. Neil’s uncle interrupts the idyll, urgently seeking their help teaching at his art school in Santa Fe. A month later, Bronson and Sam move into Casa Marriner and meet the faculty members, several jealous and difficult.

Bronson teaches plein air classes, often at the Galisteo escarpment. At first, the students are confrontational and awkward, but they soon grasp his enthusiasm with the New Mexico landscape. While they learn new skills, he refines his, taking the escarpment as a major motif. Crisis at the school involves Bronson in a curious project and a trip abroad to Greece. Besides discovering himself in Santa Fe, he explores the world of sex and love with one of his students, Salazar. New York must wait.

GENDERQUEER
A Story from a Different Closet
By Allan D. Hunter

Derek is a girl. He wasn’t one of the boys as a kid. He admired, befriended, and socialized with the girls and always knew he was one of them, despite being male. That wasn’t always accepted or understood, but he didn’t care—he knew who he was. Now he’s a teenager and boys and girls are flirting and dating and his identity has become a lot more complicated: he’s attracted to the girls. The other girls. The female ones.

This is Derek’s story, the story of a different kind of male hero—a genderqueer person’s tale. It follows Derek from his debut as an eighth grader in Los Alamos, New Mexico until his unorthodox coming out at the age of twenty-one on the University of New Mexico campus in Albuquerque.

This century’s first decade saw many LGBT centers and services rebranding themselves as LGBTQ. The “Q” in LGBTQ is a new addition. It represents other forms of “queer” in an inclusive wave-of-the hand toward folks claiming to vary from conventional gender and orientation, such as genderqueer people. People who are affirmatively tolerant on gay, lesbian and transgender issues still ask “Why do we need to add another letter to the acronym? Isn’t anyone who isn’t mainstream already covered by ‘gay’ or ‘lesbian’ or ‘bisexual’ or ‘trans’? I’m all in favor of people having the right to call themselves whatever they want, but seriously, do we need this term?”

Derek’s tale testifies to the real-life relevance of that “Q.” This is a genderqueer coming-of-age and coming-out story from an era long before genderqueer was trending.

Allan D. Hunter lived in New Mexico from 1973 to 1984 before emigrating to New York to become a gender activist. He received a degree in Women’s Studies and graduate degrees in Sociology and Social Work and worked with psychiatric patients’ rights groups and gender identity support groups. He later served as elder abuse case worker in the Bronx. His truncated academic career included publication of a short but groundbreaking theory piece, “Same Door Different Closet: A Heterosexual Sissy’s Coming-Out Party” in a peer-reviewed journal, “Feminism & Psychology.” The original manuscript for this book received an award in a Cisco Writers Club competition.

Allan is available to lecture on gender issues and share his personal story at universities, LGBTQ organizations, and other venues. He also frequently blogs on these topics. For more information, please visit the author's website at www.genderkitten.com.

HEIR LINE FRACTURE
Uncovering the Dark Side of the Bright Lights
By Marc Freden

Order from Sunstone: (505) 988-4418

Mica Daly is fresh from his scandal-ridden ouster from the hit American entertainment series Drop Zone. But the scandal gave Mica international gravitas and he has landed a new deal as the entertainment host on the daily British morning news program Rise ‘N Shine. And he’s an instant hit with the British audiences. Just call him Freddy. Titled and entitled, international party boy Fredrick Charles Arthur Henry, Duke of Clarence, believes he is the rightful heir to the British throne. And for his silence, Freddy has received his position, a royal apartment and a substantial stipend on which to live. That should be enough...but enough is never enough for the loose lipped Fast Freddy. Edward “Ted” Harrelson is a man of mystery. By admission he works in the Ministry of Defense. Or does he? He frequents the Palace on “official business”; is a member of a prestigious, if not clandestine, members only club in Mayfair; and elicits more questions than offers answers. All-in-all, an explosive exposé of the shadowy world of political intrigue, underground maneuverings and the lengths to which a government will go to silence a truth no one is ready or able to accept.

Producer and on-camera personality Marc Freden reveals the “dark side of the bright lights” with an explosive series of novels revealing the unspoken truths of the celebrity world. Not Too Cocksure introduced the recurring character of Mica Daly—an ambitious entertainment journalist who becomes the topic of his own story when his involvement with the meteoric rising star, Chad Martin, goes from the murmurs of gossip to the stuff of Hollywood lore. Now with Heir Line Fracture, Freden goes from taking on Hollywood royalty to tangling with actual royalty through the dark secret of Freddy, Duke of Clarence. Freden draws from his own real-life experience as the entertainment host for the British morning news program GMTV to give truth to his unique perspective of actual characters and culture for this explosive and dynamic story of intrigue and government subculture in the glamorous worlds of royalty and entertainment.

IMPERIAL YELLOW
A Novel
By Douglas Atwill

A young boy grows to manhood under the watchful eye of a cultured grandmother and becomes a well-known artist.

An unexpected death in Donovan Merrill’s family makes it necessary that his grandmother, Anna, and he leave the rectory in San Miguel. They move into her summer cottage in the midst of the artist colony in the Laguna Beach of 1938, starting life over. It will be difficult with their diminished resources, but Donovan and Anna prove up to the task. They find friends and mentors among the painters and bohemians, Donovan early on deciding that he will become a painter himself.

After the war years, Anna encourages him to study in Paris; he paints for a summer in Provence and survives a difficult winter in Rome. On his return to the states, he finds a place in Santa Fe, starting his painting career in a rented adobe. When he meets Tomas de la Pena, a young Mexican writer, his life begins to tumble. Tomas’s efforts at writing are unformed, not so flourishing as Donovan’s career, so competitive troubles ensue. After building a house together, they must face Tomas’s continuing disquiet.

Time in Laguna is good to Anna, happy in her growing circle of artist friends. A love affair and a later marriage to a German expatriate make a striking contrast to her old life as a minister’s wife in San Miguel. She worries as Donovan finds his way, and supports him emotionally and financially. But Donovan proves he can succeed on his own.

This is Douglas Atwill’s fourth book for Sunstone Press, after Why I Won’t Be Going to Lunch Anymore in 2004, The Galisteo Escarpment in 2008, and Creep Around the Corner in 2009. Atwill grew up in California and Texas, lived in Europe and on the East Coast before moving to Santa Fe to paint. His canvases are shown in galleries thoughout the nation and his avocation is the design and construction of vernacular Santa Fe residences.

LEFT EARLY, ARRIVED LATE
Scenes from the Life of Marcia Muth, Memory Painter
By Teddy Jones

Order from Sunstone: (800) 243-5644

Left Early, Arrived Late conveys an unconventional biography of an unconventional woman. Marcia Muth, Memory Painter, emerges through a series of scenes from her life, a long life that began in 1919. “It was a good childhood,” Muth says, reflecting on her early years. But her perspective is at odds with the “good childhood” prescribed by most theories of human development. For that reason, James Hillman’s myth-enriched book, The Soul’s Code, serves as guide for this tale of a remarkable artistic life. Hillman tells us that each soul has an accompanying daimon that knows that soul’s destiny and that serves as its impetus. A life such as Muth’s, that has consistently run counter to typical roles and expectations--of children, of females, of career development, of most of Muth’s contemporaries--lends credence to the notion that norms are meaningless when applied to individuals.

Muth, accurately described at various points in her life as odd child, ward of the state, professional librarian, poet, entrepreneur, Jew, estranged daughter, mentor, caretaker, visionary, Living Treasure, and Memory Painter, permitted extensive interviews for this book. Friends and acquaintances from throughout her life also provided important information. Her art and her poetry tell parts of her story and photographs trace the subject of the scenes through her years. The result is Left Early, Arrived Late, a biography that is uncommon, as is its subject, Marcia Muth, Memory Painter.

Teddy Jones writes about women, particularly women whose lives allow readers to view the uncommon in the ordinary. She lives and works in the settings she enjoys most--rural West Texas and New Mexico.

Jones’ website, www.tjoneswrites.com, includes additional material created in response to her acquaintance and friendship with Marcia Muth. More scenes, a series of imaginary art works created as a result of writing Left Early, Arrived Late--Scenes from the Life of Marcia Muth, Memory Painter, invite readers to enter a tour of Muth’s life through visualization and questions that prompt further exploration.

Jones is also the co-author of A Stone for Every Journey and 100 Doses, a finalist in the 2007 New Mexico Book Award competition. Both books are published by Sunstone Press.

NOT TOO COCKSURE
The Truth from the Dark Side of the Bright Lights
By Marc Freden

Order from Sunstone: (800) 243-5644

Mica Daly is a popular on-camera reporter on the daily entertainment news program Drop Zone and a fixture on the red carpet circuit. But he’s hungry for more—a hot story that he can really sink his teeth into. And there is Chad Martin, little more than a wannabe actor when he and Mica met at one of Roger Keenan’s infamous dinner parties. As their relationship grows, so does Chad’s career. In fact, Chad’s rise to stardom is meteoric. But Joey Chase has ambition too. A paparazzi with a nose for news, he captures a series of provocative pictures of Chad with a mystery man causing rumors to swirl that there is more to the Chad Martin story than meets the media’s scrutinizing eye. Lydia Gray, Mica’s unscrupulous boss, sees an opportunity and assigns Mica to find out just who the man is in Chad’s life. Caught in having to out his own boyfriend to save his career, Mica soon finds that even choosing the high road is bumpy and may just lead down a path Mica is not ready to travel—a road paved with deceit, heartbreak, jeopardy, even death.

MARC FREDEN, with a lifelong career in the television industry—in front of the camera and behind the scenes, on iconic movie sets and numerous red carpets—has rubbed elbows with the Hollywood A-list, partied with the up and comers and has literally seen it all. His extensive experience and eyewitness anecdotes have been the stuff of everything from highly rated and entertaining television reports to cocktail party banter. As a distinguished interviewer, producer, director and author, he’s chatted with everyone from the notoriously media discreet Barbra Streisand to sharing champagne with HRH Queen Elizabeth II. Now Freden is turning his vast repertoire of entertainment industry inside knowledge into a series of indiscreet tales, as told through the exploits of his alter ego Mica Daly, letting you in on the dark side of the bright lights. Through his character of Mica Daly the author tells what he knows but like Mica, knows more than he tells.

SEPTEMBER SONGS
A Novel
By Melvyn Chase

It’s the autumn of discontent for David Berger—a season of mixed emotions. Retired after a lucrative but unfulfilling career, he lives alone by choice in a modest, sparsely furnished cottage in affluent Fairfield, Connecticut.

True, he's proud of finally becoming a published author—a lifelong dream—although he will admit good-naturedly that fame has eluded him. True, he still loves his wife, Mandy—but a decade ago, a tragic loss drove them apart. And now he watches with regret as their married son, Philip, is manipulated by a possessive, mercenary wife. Still, David hasn't lost his sense of humor or his humanity. And he is determined to transform his autumn into spring—to reignite his romance with Mandy and rebuild their relationship with Philip.

Surprisingly, the key to this transformation is a new friend, a fascinating, audacious, unpredictable lesbian author who insists on being the Muse for his latest novel. With her prodding encouragement, David's book leads him on an intense, emotional journey through the sometimes funny, sometimes sad memories of his life and loves toward a better new day.

After a thirty-five-year career in public relations, Melvyn Chase retired from corporate life, but continued to work as a consultant. He also began to write fiction. In 2005, Sunstone Press published his first collection of short stories, The Terminal Project and Other Voyages of Discovery—a finalist in the 2007 New Mexico Book Awards—and in 2008, his first novel, The Wingthorn Rose. Chase was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. He earned a B.A. in English Literature at Brooklyn College and an M.A. at New York University. He and his wife, a retired editor and publicist, live in suburban Connecticut, only a short drive from their son and daughter and four grandchildren.

THAT GUY IN OUR WOMEN’S STUDIES CLASS
By Allan D. Hunter

A personal memoir of a genderqueer male seeking a political platform within collegiate women’s studies programs in the era before modern gender-identity politics.

In this nonfiction memoir, Derek, a genderqueer sissy male, decides that a women’s studies class in college would be a good place to engage people in discussions about gender. Derek has reason to worry that he’s invading women’s space by attending women’s studies classes. At the same time, he’s a minority within that space, and, as a gender-nonconforming sissy in the 1980s, a person with a gender identity that wasn’t acknowledged and recognized yet, he’s been somewhat marginalized by gender himself. This narrative tale illustrates the complexities of intersectionality, the interconnected nature of social categorizations such as race, class, and gender and so forth. The main character is male, the privileged sex in the patriarchal context. The story follows Derek down Oklahoma highways and into heroin dens in Harlem and then into the homeless shelters of 1980s New York City, as the determined but not always practical Derek pursues his dream. Along the way, the story delves into the complexities of privilege and social identity in ways that challenge assumptions about power and marginalization—not in primary-color simplicity but by exploring privilege and deprivation along a number of different dimensions and showing it in all of its native complexity, all while still respecting a concern for empowering the voice of those left out.

Allan D. Hunter became one of the first male women’s studies majors in 1985 at the State University of New York at Old Westbury, graduating with a BA in 1988. He pursued graduate studies at SUNY / Stony Brook, obtaining an MA in Sociology and MSW in Social Work, creating a rich collection of feminist theory papers in the process. “Same Door, Different Closet: A Heterosexual Sissy’s Coming-Out Party” was published in the journal Feminism and Psychology 2 (3) in 1992 and reprinted twice in subsequent anthologies. A second theory paper, “The Feminist Perspective in (and/or On) the Field of Sociology” was published in 2006 (Readings in Feminist Theory, Ed. S. M. Channa, Cosmo Publications). His novel, GenderQueer: A Story From a Different Closet, published by Sunstone Press, is a coming-of-age coming-out story from the genderqueer vantage point, an identity only recently on the social radar.

WILD PLUM AT NIGHT
A Novel of Betrayal
By Jamie Wheelas

"Wheelas' plot has been done in books and films before, but without the gay twist he gives it. Handsome, bright, good, sensitive Martine dePaul grows up in one of America's wealthiest families. His demanding father never praises him and wants him to go into the family business. His mother tries to provide the love missing in his life. Although popular and successful at a posh eastern school, his only solace comes from attending mass each day. Instead of going into the family business, he becomes a priest and asks for a parish in a poverty-stricken New Mexico community. And there he breaks his vow of celibacy with the 19-year-old son of the richest ranch family around--a hedonist who is the foil to Martine's Christ-like character. Although its tone is almost as arty as its plot is familiar, this gay version of 'The Thorn Birds' is redeemed by setting Martine's struggle-with-self against New Mexico's natural beauty and its poor people's struggle for survival." (BOOKLIST)

Order from Sunstone: (800) 243-5644

Martine DePaul, a brilliant young priest, turns his back on a powerful and wealthy family’s privileged world to become parish priest of an impoverished Indian pueblo church near Santa Fe, New Mexico. Caught in a relationship with a young male hedonist, the devoted but naïve cleric is seduced into breaking his vow of celibacy. Devastated, Martine feels he must leave the priesthood. Into this struggle, played out against the timeless beauty of one of America’s oldest cities, steps a benevolent archbishop who offers a solution to Martine’s agony.

The author has spent most of his life in New Mexico. He was educated in France and has pursued careers in both literature and history.
