A very comprehensive work on how gay iconography has been portrayed over the years through various artistic expressions: literature, photography, cinema, etc.

If anyone thinks to search on Google the term “gay icon,” they will find hundreds of photos of muscular young men with little or no clothing or even naked, photos of divas like Judy Garland, Cher, Madonna, Britney Spears, and even Carmen Lomana and Cristiano Ronaldo. Well, this book is NOT about any of that. What it is about is seeing how gay iconography has been shown over the years through various artistic manifestations, whether in literature, photography, cinema, comics, music, television series, or even performing arts. This is a lively and enjoyable view of what the broad gay spectrum has produced, sometimes unfairly reduced to just a few prototypes, and since a picture is worth a thousand words, in this book the reader will find hundreds of photos that roughly equal… well, a lot of words. In short, here you will find many gays and others who are not, but all of them make up a glorious reality. So, let the show begin.
