In \u003ci\u003eBody Blows\u003c\/i\u003e, Tim Miller leaps from the stage to the page, as each performance script is illustrated with striking photographs and accompanied by Miller’s notes and comment.\u003cbr\u003e     This book explores the tangible body blows—taken and given—of Miller’s life and times as explored in his performances: the queer-basher’s blow, the sweet blowing breath of a lover, the below-the-belt blow of HIV\/AIDS, the psychic blows from a society that disrespects the humanity of lesbian and gay relationships. Miller’s performances are full of the put-up-your-dukes and stand-your-ground of such day-to-day blows that make up being gay in America\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Wisconsin Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47120564650224,"sku":"9780299176839","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780299176839_p0.jpg?v=1763683930","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780299176839","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
