Yes, there is 'Maurice' by E. M. Forster. It's a classic that tells a story of self - discovery and same - sex love in a very elegant and non - explicit way.

Another one is 'The Price of Salt' by Patricia Highsmith. It's a story about a lesbian relationship. The focus is on the relationship itself, the emotions, the social implications, and the characters' growth, rather than on erotic elements.

The novel 'Fun Home' is also a great work. It's a memoir that uses the relationship between the author and his gay father as a starting point. It explores family, memory, and the complex emotions within the family environment in a very delicate way without any sexual - related focus.
