Review
" If Memory Serves is a carefully argued case for the deep, albeit repressed, kinship between the rise of queer theory and the horrors of AIDS. This is a book that boldly seeks to prod sleeping collective memories of old school faggotry—that pre-AIDS sensibility which harnessed promiscuous sex to an unabashed declaration of queer identity—toward a new historical narrative that refuses to enlist our past only to reinforce the claims of our present." —Jonathan Katz " If Memory Serves is a brilliant and powerful argument for memory as an activist act, a refusal to live in the present as is, and a vital tool for reinvigorating queer theory." —Elizabeth Freeman, author of Time Binds
