The central characters in Gay Zoo Day: Tales of Seeking and Discovery are all searching for something more than what life has handed them. They trace their paths through landscapes of love, death, violence, ambition, and sex. Some seek deliberately, some stumble blindly, but all find more than what they were looking for. Each story takes a queer approach to a familiar genre: an adventure in space, a cowboy romance in Panama, a ghost story in upstate New York, a revenge drama in colonial Kenya. Gay Zoo Day uses the map of the world to explore the map of the heart.

Industry Reviews

"In his dazzling debut, Mike McClelland takes us on a worldwide series of fascinating adventures with eloquence and style while maintaining a warm sense of humanity in a unique array of settings. The stories range from a Colonial Brit seeking revenge in Africa, the anxiety of an HIV scare in London, a boy's touching friendship with a housemaid in Hong Kong, a South American tryst between a pilot and a hunky cowboy, even a scientist and a cosmonaut in space."

- Jim Provenzano, author of the short fiction collection Forty Wild Crushes, the Lambda Literary Award winning Every Time I Think of You, and other novels.

"Mike McClelland's writing is like the love affairs he writes so lovingly about: urgent, intimate and sometimes sordid, yet always attuned to the smallest gestures and details."

- Ben Tanzer, author of Be Cool and Orphans
