London today: a world of sex and drugs and designer clothes, where Robert searches for fulfilment in gay clubs and chat rooms. London 50 years ago: fresh out of National Service, Michael enters a secret queer underworld, negotiating the dangers of the law and the closet, longing for liberation and love. Past and present collide when Robert moves into a new flat, and discovers that history is alive and kicking on his doorstep. Their two worlds barely recognize each other; but do Robert and Michael have more in common than they think? Man s World is a funny, sexy, and moving story about friendship and desire; about how much the world has changed - and how little.
Anthony Trollope (1815-1882) was an English novelist of the Victorian era. Among his best-known works is a series of novels collectively known as the Chronicles of Barsetshire, which revolves around the imaginary county of Barsetshire. "Marion Fay" is a novel of two love affairs, each involving an aristocrat and a commoner. Marion Fay is a Quaker`s daughter courted by the Lord Hampstead. Meanwhile, his best friend, the impoverished George Roden, is in love with the Lord`s noble sister. Differences of class and situation create a romantic drama in typical Trollope fashion.
