Quote from this book "Just a few years ago this book couldn't have been done. Gay life was still too much in the closet. Now gays have appeared on the covers of national magazines; they have been interviewed, photographed, analyzed and dissected on news specials, voted for, voted against, and generally talked about more than any time in modern history. While homosexual rights are a political hot potato these days, and probably will be for some years to come, gay life is very in, as the cliche says, very chic, very seventies - what blacks were to the sixties, Jews to the fifties, GIs to the forties. And with all this happening in and around gay life - the new political consciousness, the legal battles, the media coverage, gay pride - gays are out on the streets hiding nothing, living their lifestyle openly, and willing to let it all be documented by the camera." opening paragraphs, introduction Secondhand booksellers |
