Gay Liberation after May '68

"A wind of revolution sweeps through these pages, which bring the radical thought of influential French gay liberationist Guy Hocquenghem to Anglophone readers. Gay Liberation after May '68 anticipates both queer and trans theory by refusing every politics of respectability in order to theorize a radical transversalism that dissolves all identities, corrodes all institutions, and sweeps away 'civilization' itself in favor of a better world to come."

Kadji Amin, author of, Disturbing Attachments: Genet, Modern Pederasty, and Queer History

"An immense gift to queer theory, Gay Liberation after May '68 promises to bring a new generation of English-language readers to Guy Hocquenghem; these readers can use this text as a blueprint for activism to interrupt and hopefully dismantle the gross structural inequities that shape our present world."

Benjamin Kahan, author of, Celibacies: American Modernism and Sexual Life
