Douglas Stuart's 10 Favorite Books

"Bookseller One Grand Books has asked celebrities to name the ten titles they'd take to a desert island, and they've shared the results with Vulture. Below is fashion designer turned novelist Douglas Stuart's list. "As a Scotsman, if I were stranded on a desert island, I would probably die of sunstroke before I had the opportunity to sit down to read a book," he says. "But if I did survive long enough, then I think what I would miss most would be love. I would want to re-read all the queer love stories that have shaped me over the years, all the tales that broke my big gay heart. It might even prove useful; I've cried at all of these books. The rescue party could follow the sound of my sobbing."
