Reviews

"Camp Grounds vividly illustrates the pervasiveness and usefulness of camp in literature and other arts, as well as in life, while raising intriguing questions about homosexual style. . . . [It] combines classic essays and current work to create an echoing chamber in which ideas about this fascinating aspect of gay life and culture reverberate. The book is an exciting and useful contribution to the burgeoning field of gay studies."--Claude Summers, University of Michigan, Dearborn
