《孽子》是白先勇描绘同性恋者世界的一部长篇小说。
书中的“孽子”是一些脆弱的孩子，被遗弃在街头、被逐出家门、屡次从家中逃跑或是未被了解，他们聚集在半明半暗的隐秘处，沉湎于为钱而做的爱，屈服于为他们短暂命运设置信标的长者。而最终，他们毕竟还是要在彼此宿命的运数中那种粗暴的、剧烈的温柔里相互取暖。听到一则这隐秘王国的传说，他们都会目瞪口呆；这些孩子虽堕落和违反常情，但却又感情丰富且乐于牺牲；前辈的故事在他们身上往往会起一种集体身份认同的作用。这些失落而颈上未戴项圈的孩子，他们因一些从他们的失势中硬拉出来的不可思议的事而存活着。书中的“郭老”，一位性爱市场的享乐者，就在每一位“新人”来到时为他留住影像，他的“青春鸟集”是一本永恒的相簿，留存了在危险之中却又被神化的青春少年。
