Hailed for his humor and passion, the internationally acclaimed performance artist Tim Miller has delighted, shocked, and emboldened audiences all over the world. "Body Blows" gathers six of Miller s best-known performances that chart the sexual, spiritual, and political topography of his identity as a gay man: Some Golden States, Stretch Marks, My Queer Body, Naked Breath, Fruit Cocktail, and Glory Box. In "Body Blows, " 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.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
