New York: Sheridan House, 1949 |
Viereck is probably more well known for his autobiographical pulp, Men Into Beasts which detailed his imprisonment from 1942 to 1947 for his Nazi sympathies and his work as a correspondent for a Nazi publication.
All Things Human is the story of Stuart Kent, a banker in Midmetropolis, who ends up on the wrong side of a powerful politician. The day after he has sex with his secretary, he is arrested for her murder. His lawyer is more interested in Kent's wife than he is in defending him.
It's a bit sensational and trashy but at the same time shows the fluidity of sexuality, in and out of prison. It's about having everything, losing it all and finding yourself in the process.
Bibliographies & Ratings: Cory (III); Garde (OTP, a, **); Mattachine Review (III); Young (260)
