Product Description

In Love in a Dark Time, Colm Tóibín looks at the life and work of some of the greatest and most influential artists of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Linked by the common thread of their sexualities, his subjects range from figures such as Oscar Wilde, born in the 1850s, to Pedro Almodóvar, born nearly a hundred years later. Tóibín studies how a changing world impacted on the lives of people who, on the whole, kept their homosexuality hidden, and reveals that the laws of desire changed everything for them, both in their private lives and in the spirit of their work. Now part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature.

In this perceptive and rich collection of essays, Colm Tóibín investigates the lives as well as the work of homosexual writers and artists of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
