When it comes to the mixture of "tolerance," ignorance, and downright homophobia the college students of Stir-Fry face, well. Older books like, say, Fear of Flying or Tales of the City may not feel particularly relevant to our current moment, but they shed some light on the time when they were truly influential. Stir-Fry is definitely dated, but not dated enough.
Stir-Fry has been out of print ever since, and I've wondered many times why the now-acclaimed Emma Donoghue hasn't allowed another publisher to bring it out.
LGBT publisher of the time, which went under after it switched to all ebooks extremely prematurely. The paperback edition was released in 1996 by Alyson, the premier U.S. It was reviewed in Sassy magazine upon its hardback release in 1994, after which my sister and I read and liked it, but didn't love it. Stir-Fry is Emma Donoghue's first novel, from before she became Slammerkin Emma Donoghue and certainly well before she became Emma Donoghue of Room fame.
