Biography & Autobiography
In Love in a Dark Time Colm Toibin looks at the lives and works of some of the greatest and most influential artists of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. His subjects range from figures such as Oscar Wilde, born in the 1850s, to Pedro Almodvar, born nearly one hundred years later. Toibin studies how a changing world impacted the lives of people who, on the whole, kept their homosexuality hidden, and reveals that the laws of desire changed everything for them, both in their private lives and in the spirit of their work.
