The Mirror of Love
Based on the Epic Poem by Alan Moore

This epic poem recounts the history of same-sex love, revealing a hidden side of Western culture through the lives of its greatest artists. Sappho, Michelangelo, Shakespeare, Emily Dickenson, Oscar Wilde, and many others are woven into this visceral piece. Originally written over fourteen years ago, The Mirror of Love sprang from Moore's activist heart as a reaction to Britain's anti-gay law, Clause 28.
