Shooting from the elevated perspective of an eighteen-foot tripod or an observation deck, Massimo Vitali captures his fellow Italians in pursuit of pleasure -- at the disco and on the beach. His disco images are an intriguing mix, showing us the public displays of both the inhibited and those liberated by their anonymity withing a crowd, in his beach scenes, we are allowed to people-watch the people watchers, to voyeuristically scrutinize families and sunbathers -- the modern participants in an age-old leisure ritual. Our focus shifts between the whole of the crowd and specific individuals, creating an interesting dynamic of combined panoramic photography and portraiture. This book is Vitali's much-anticipated debut publication.

In this sequel to "Sex, Drugs & Disco," Mark Abramson's diaries begin on January 1, 1980 with optimism for the new decade. San Francisco was a beacon of freedom for gay men from around the world, and he was there to write down the details of most of his tricks, love affairs, and all the fleeting encounters in between. Like the denizens of pre-war Berlin, we were scarcely aware of how special were the times we lived in, nor that our hedonistic joy in the celebration of gay liberation would soon be cut short by the terrible scourge of AIDS.
