The Mirror of Love by Alan Moore and Jose Villarrubia 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, that reveals the hidden side of Western culture through the loves of some of its greatest creators. Enduring waves of oppression, we learn the reason why gay culture has survived and flourished despite centuries of persecution.

This edition presents the poem fully illustrated by Jose Villarrubia, who has previously collaborated with Moore on his award winning series Promethea and his novel Voice of the Fire. It also features a forward by novelist Robert Rodi and an introduction by OBIE Award-winning playwright David Drake, as well as an index of historical characters featured in the piece, a slected bibliography, and classic love poems by Sappho, Michelangelo, Emily Dickinson, Walt Whitman and Wilfred Owen.
