Sweet Tooth is a book of anonymous sexual encounters and of lust that grades into love: a story by one of the most brilliantly uncompromising innovators of gay literature that shocks with candor and builds to an incredible climax. Its last line--\"Adventure is dead\"--grounds everything that has come before and gives a conclusive, melancholy tone to a book that is much more than shocking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYves Navarre (September 24, 1940 - January 24, 1994) was a French writer. A gay man, most of his work concerned homosexuality and associated issues, such as AIDS.
