Summary

"Written over two decades ago, in the aftermath of May '68 and Stonewall, Hocquenghem's "Homosexual Desire" may well be the first example of what we now call queer theory. But its significance is more than historical: it remains an indispensable analysis of, and polemic against, institutionalized homophobia."--Douglas Crimp
