Imre: A Memorandum, privately printed in 1906, is the story of two men—an English gentleman traveller and a Hungarian army officer—who meet in a cafe in a fictionalised Budapest and fall in love. It's a remarkable book! The discussions of Imre and Oswald's backstories and their respective eventual acceptance of their sexuality contain a great deal of detail on contemporary attitudes to and ideas about homosexuality (/similisexualism, Uranianism, etc.); and it's also a very sweet love story, with a decisive happy ending. I recommend it, and I'm especially pleased with having done something to make it more accessible to a wider readership.
