'My dear, she's on fire!' DAMIAN BARR
'A snappy guide to an all-conquering aesthetic' Financial Times

'The following things have seemed impossibly camp to me at one point or another: a doll whose body acts as a cover for a toilet roll, a tantrum over wire coat hangers, a 1950s muscle magazine featuring a photo of a young man dressed as a gladiator, and a rat underneath a silver serving platter'

An essential reappraisal of camp across time and across the globe, from the author of Fabulosa! and Outrageous!

Camp has been an inescapable part of popular culture for at least the last 150 years. Famously unrestrained and ever evolving, it has not only captured the cultural imagination, but also played an important role as a form of protest and resistance.

Paul Baker takes us through camp's rebellious and revolutionary past with warmth, humour and sensitivity, starting with the court of Louis XIV and the dandies of the eighteenth century through to Showgirls, Harlem's drag balls and Columbian telenovelas.

Throughout its history, camp has been a place of refuge and renewal, of heroism and hedonism. This glorious celebration traces camp's journey from the fringes of society to the mainstream. Entertainment & Performing Arts Film & TV History & Criticism LGBTQ+ Studies Music Eğlence

this was exquisite & encouraged me to consume the many camp delicacies that emerge out of Baker's oven, and be more camp myself. Ta-ra!

Delicious fun

This was such a well written, funny and insightful look at something that is very difficult to pin down and define. Really entertaining, and I have a lot of new things to look up to expand my knowledge on camp!

A sashay through history

An exploration of all things camp! From the underground to the mainstream, Baker blends academic insight with a sense of humour but never losing critical edge.

An engaging read for LGBTQ + enthusiasts as well as though too toeing into a humorous world that will leave you seeing ‘camp’ wverywhere

Camp-ology (not the bell ringing kind)
