What do Grace Jones, Benjamin Disraeli, Salvador Dali, K-Pop and a giant art nouveau vase covered in fairies and stuffed with peacock feathers have in common? Answer: they are all, wildly, completely and utterly ... Camp. Yes, C-A-M-P, that strange, hard-to-define quality
In this hilarious, era-defining book, author and cultural commentator Simon Doonan gets to grips with Camp. Who is she? Where did she come from and where did she go? Why is she back? Just who is Susan Sontag when she’s at home?! Beautifully illustrated throughout, the book includes 100 entries that are completely and unapologetically Camp — of course Dynasty, poodles and RuPaul are here, but vampires, tattoos, Queen Victoria and even cake? Absolutely. Doonan makes the Camp case for these as well.
