From the supplier: The Violet Quill Club was formed by seven Manhattan writers, Edmund White among them, as a place to incubate and share gay writing. The growing audience for gay writing and the members' fame imposed physical limitations and emotional strains on the club, and after an uncontrollable quarrel, the club broke up. Its several years of existence are being exhaustively researched and discussed, although its members do not regard the club as having had much literary significance.
