The Mirror of Love Hardcover
This masterpiece, an epic poem in prose, is a passionate love letter
that beautifully recounts the history of same-sex love. Author Alan Moore
takes us on a fascinating journey, from prehistory to the present, revealing
the hidden side of Western culture through the lives of its greatest
creators. Sappho, Michelangelo, Shakespeare, Emily Dickinson, Oscar Wilde,
and many others are woven into this rich, visceral piece. This edition
presents the poem fully illustrated by José Villarrubia, who has previously
collaborated with Moore on his award-winning series Promethea and his novel
Voice of the Fire. The result is a truly arresting volume that captures the
spirit of Moore's poem while redefining the concept of a picture book for
adults.
