Not Just Another Pretty Face - Full Color Edition

Louis Flint Ceci

4.47/5 (1 ratings)

Read Now Download Now

The stories, poems, memoirs, and drama in this collection have a single element uniting their wide range of literary styles and genres: they all spring directly from photographs of go-go boys.

The ideal go-go boy is the perfect erotic object. We imagine him as lost or broken so that we might rescue him, or as potent and aggressive so that we might be the focus of his desire. But the images captured here suggest deeper, more complex realities. These dancers are whimsical, haunting, satiric, playful, ominous. They are not objects, not icons, but stories waiting to be told.

Not Just Another Pretty Face plays with the interface of projections: what these young men project in their poses and expressions, and what we project on them in return. This full color edition reveals the complex intersection of expectation and reality. It explores assumptions, prejudices, fantasies, and revelations. It looks beyond the archetype, beneath the skin.
