"Written over two decades ago, in the aftermath of May '68 and Stonewall, Hocquenghem'sHomosexual Desiremay well be the first example of what we now call queer theory. But its significance is more than historical: it remains an indispensable analysis of, and polemic against, institutionalized homophobia." Douglas Crimp "Homosexual Desirerepresents the best of left social theory of sexual politics, a tradition that has never had an adequate reception in the United States. Reprinting this book now is a step toward recovering that tradition, and could therefore open debates about the significance of sexuality." Michael Warner "This remarkable essay was one of the first efforts to describe the psychological structure of homophobia into which we all were born and which still confine us. It examines, principally from the male perspective, the powerful and insidious ways the dominant heterosexual culture defines and marginalizes gay experience." Michael Roberts,Bay Windows(San Francisco), Written over two decades ago, in the aftermath of May '68 and Stonewall, Hocquenghem's Homosexual Desire may well be the first example of what we now call queer theory.

WOW! The condition is incredible for the price I paid - I thank the seller for accepting my offer as I'm poor and need all the help I can get in obtaining the more expensive otogizoshi & other medieval & ancient Japanese Literature that I'm looking for, so this seller really was generous with the price and I thank them from the bottom of my heart. Packaged super safe, really fast shipping, and the book is like new, so much better than the Ad's description! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SELLER FOR SURE!!
