The Crisis of Desire AIDS and the Fate of Gay Brotherhood Trade cloth - 1999
de Hardy, Robin; David Groff
Resumen
With eloquent passion, Robin Hardy writes of the gay man's struggle to maintain power over his health, his body, and his sexuality in the face of a devastating epidemic. Building on the work of books like Paul Monette's Borrowed Time and Randy Shilts's And the Band Played On, The Crisis of Desire combines memoir and social critique in a forward-looking appeal to gay men to accept "the mortal risk of loving." Historically, AIDS forced gay men into a defensive position that devastated their community and their sense of themselves. Today, whether they are fighting for health care or exploring their sexuality, gay men are constrained by society and the government--and also by their own estrangement from the pre-AIDS era of sexual possibility. Because HIV is more manageable for many, the issues of sexual health, responsibility, and sexual empowerment are more vital than ever. A fresh and persuasive call in an urgent debate, The Crisis of Desire is a return to the Stonewall legacy, a bold commitment to connections based on truth, human care, and the sexual authenticity of the individual.

Reseñas en medios
"'The Crisis of Desire' is a smart book...very elegantly written....It speaks poignantly about the many struggles people living with HIV face, including how to manage the inevitable....Some of the book's sharpest insights are about HIV itself. One section provides the most vivid and understandable descriptions I've read anywhere of the immune system and HIV's attack. Also provocative are various examinations centered on the intersection of love and death, a crossroads familiar to all gay men these days. In the growing genre of AIDS history and gay theory, 'The Crisis of Desire' is a significant contribution." Boston Globe
