Frank and Tennessee
This is Frank "the Horse" Merlo and Tennessee Williams.
I remember Tennessee Williams give a television interview where he talked very openly about his relationship with Frank Merlo. He was definitely on a streetcar named desire when it came to Frank.
Il semble que Monsieur Williams cherchait toujours un homme pour remplacer son bien-aime Kip Kiernan. 'The Horse' pouvait satisfaire physiqument, mais pas emotionnellement comme Kip.
Kip Kiernan/Bernard Dubowsky was a Canadian draft dodger when he met Williams in Provincetown in 1940. Williams described Kip as the love of his life and waxed poetically about Kip's green eyes and well-formed ass. (Kip was studying ballet) They were together a month or so and broke up. In 1944 Kip died from brain cancer....:)

I wish I knew more about Kip. The relationship with "The Horse" was turbulent from what I've read.
