Spanning more than a century of photography and film, Hard to Imagine is the first visual chronicle of the evolution of gay male image culture, from the canonical works of "art" photography and cinema to the private and often highly explicit productions of amateurs. This comprehensive work explores a vast, eclectic tradition in its totality, analyzing the aesthetics of the visual imagery, its production, circulation, and consumption, and broad social and legal implications.

Outstanding
A superbly-researched academic piece of work which, given the nature of the material once part of a 'secret', hidden' or 'forbidden' world, makes it a triumph. On first impression, a quick flick through the visual resources by anyone hoping for a shallow, salacious thrill might feel rewarded in that way. but the enduring effect, because of the incisive, rigorous referencing through social history, changing laws and the public/private realm, makes this a brave, important and stand-out book.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
