The Men with the Pink Triangle: The True Life-and-Death Story of Homosexuals in the Nazi Death Camps - Heinz Heger
For decades, history ignored the Nazi persecution of gay people.

Nobody had ever written so frankly about the kinky potential of woman-to-woman sex (and nobody has ever done it any better). If any book is responsible fo...
