Fiddler's Luck: The Gay Adventures of a Musical Amateur is a novel written by Robert Haven Schauffler in 1920. The book follows the story of a young man named Peter Whiffle, who is a struggling musician trying to make a name for himself in New York City. Peter is a fiddler and has a passion for music, but he is also a bit of a wanderer and enjoys exploring the city and meeting new people.The story is set in the early 1900s and takes the reader on a journey through the bohemian lifestyle of artists and musicians in New York City. Peter's adventures are filled with colorful characters, including other musicians, artists, and writers, and he finds himself in a variety of situations, from performing in a vaudeville show to attending a wild party in Greenwich Village.Throughout the book, Peter struggles with his sexuality, as he is attracted to both men and women. His experiences with different people and his own personal journey of self-discovery make up the heart of the story. The book is considered groundbreaking for its time, as it portrays homosexuality in a positive light and challenges traditional gender roles.Fiddler's Luck is a humorous and charming novel that captures the spirit of the early 20th century and the bohemian lifestyle of artists and musicians in New York City. It is a must-read for anyone interested in LGBTQ+ literature and the history of the gay rights movement.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
