The Love Smeller by James H. Ramp (Fanfare Publications, 1966)
The Love Smeller is a very unusual and amusing book. It’s a collection of (linked) stories about a dog in some podunk Southern town that uses his sense of smell to matchmake the men in town who may or may not realize that they are gay. In each story the dog sniffs around town, identifying the men who love (and crave) cock and hooking them up with the help of his owner and the growing fraternity of happy homosexuals that increasingly populate the town, much to everyone’s delight. A bizarrely sweet curiosity.
