Book Reviews of Beyond Brokeback: The Impact of a Film
Book Review: A Real Sense of Community
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is inspirational. It is based on the contributions of the Ultimate Brokeback (web) Forum. This was constructed in response to the film Brokeback Mountain, providing a discursive outlet for new media commentators.
Here we find not only a moving and personally rewarding text which presents edited versions of the most impactful web contributions, but also there is a sense of political connectivity which transcends the ephemeral nature of web forums.
This text provides a connectivity which traces personal responses to the film; at the same way it is a pathway to understanding - which is therapeutic.
Through revealing stories of identification, inspiration and intimacy, alongside those of rejection, isolation and loss, Beyond Brokeback challenges stereotypical ideas as to the extents and depths of homosexual lives.
Most importantly, Beyond Brokeback provides a real sense of an "inclusive" gay and lesbian community - which seems denied to many living in isolation.
