Inhalación profunda

Three, two, one... take a deep breath! From Victorian hospitals to 1970s sex clubs, popper steam has unleashed the queer potential in many of us. This is the amazing story of how the popper made its way out of the lab and into gay bars, corner stores, bedrooms, and porn movies. Combining historical research with tongue-in-cheek observation, Adam Zmith explores the cultural forces and unlikely connections behind the popper high. But the book you're holding isn't just a tale of pub raids, viral phobias, and outsized pecs; is a collection of fresh and provocative ideas about identity, sex, utopia, capitalism, law, freedom, and the bodies through which we experience the world. And it is that deep inhalation. History of the popper and queer futures, which begins as an investigation into the popper becomes a necessary manifesto in favor of pleasure.
