📱 eBook en inglés BOND, QUEER BOND

Brilliantly researched, lovingly written, a wonderful behind-the-scenes look at some of the magnificent, unsung queer artists who worked on the iconic franchise. - Tom Rob Smith

An original, warm-witted and illuminating chronicle about the queer talents that have shaped the James Bond phenomenon in all its forms.

Blending historical insight with new observations and interviews, Bond commentator and author Mark OConnell presents a dynamic and entertaining James Bond compendium full of new perspectives and imagery, as well as an alternative timeline of 007 history few know exists.

In Bond, Queer Bond, what might begin as a thoughtful dive into an adjacent world of 007 fast becomes a rich, colourful and compelling manifesto about the queer DNA of a cultural icon– with LGBTQ names and beats, such as Lionel Bart, Richard Chopping, Truman Capote, Peter Hunt, Tom Ford, Doris Fish, Harvey Milk, John Sex, the AIDS crisis, the ballroom scene, pop art icons, and many more, forming the rainbow crosshairs of this book.

Joining OConnell are guest contributions from the likes of Barbara Broccoli, David Arnold, Mark Gatiss, Putter Smith, Peaches Christ, John Glen, Ann Magnuson, Jon Lys Turner, Jany Temime, Maud Adams and more. The other history of a spy has never been so fabulous.
