Alexander D'Oro --A Collection Of Stories

By Red Jordan Arobateau

Like it's companion anthology SUZIE Q & OTHER STORIES, ALEXANDER D'ORO contains 5 shorter gems. It is a black-of-center collection. The title piece, is semi autobiographical; mostly about a fabulous character we first met in FLASH! ON THE HUSTLER! A beautiful black sissy, failed theatrical actor, and hustler extraordinaire. The growing up of two gay teenagers; the author, describes his own early years. We were talking about ideas and the civil rights movement. Us oddballs." His turf was as wide as the four corners of the world. While most sissies lived and died on Chicago's South side."-Next comes THE INVESTIGATOR; 2 African American dikes having a discussion in the femmes living room: "Etta's ex-husband told the authorities she was a lesbian because he wanted custody of their children: He had taken her to court. "Miss Dandley showed up looking hard. Had on three-piece blue suit, no makeup... "She comes in here in her suits, her hair is short. She looks like a damn bulldyke her own damn self."
