Marlon Brando warf sich 1953 in eine schwarzlederne Perfecto-Biker-Jacke, hautenge Jeans und Chopper-Stiefel, setzte sich eine Fliegermütze auf und spielte in Der Wilde Johnny, den höhnischen Anführer des Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. Im Jahr darauf verzichtete Tom of Finland in seinen Kunstwerken auf braunes Leder und schuf sich seine eigenen Wilden: muskulöse, hypermaskuline Rebellen , nun in schwarzes Leder gepresst und natürlich mit ordentlich PS zwischen den Beinen. Diesen Look übernahm noch im gleichen Jahr der Satyrs Motorcycle Club, der erste Club schwuler Biker - und ließ auf diese Weise Toms Fantasiewelt Wirklichkeit werden. Tom wäre natürlich nicht Tom gewesen, hätte er seinen neuen Schwulen-Ikonen keine eigene Note verliehen, indem er ihnen lederne Reithosen, kniehohe Stiefel und dazu Ledermützen verpasste und jedem Motorrad den Markennamen "Tom" auf den Tank schrieb. Toms Biker erschienen im Winter 1968 erstmals als zwei "Motorradburschen" in Physique Pictorial . Ein weiterer schaffte es auf die Titelseite der April-Ausgabe von 1960. Von da an beherrschten Biker den Inhalt von PP , sowohl in Würdigung seiner amerikanischen Leserschaft als auch infolge seiner eigenen wachsenden Besessenheit. Als er nach einer durchgängigen Figur suchte, seinem persönlichen Alter ego, erfand er 1968 Kake, den Inbegriff des Bikers in Lederkluft , und erzählte dessen wilde Geschichten in jeweils 26 Einzelbildern. Tom kleidete sich schließlich selbst wie Kake und trat bis zu seinem Lebensende in schwarzer Lederjacke, weißem T-Shirt, Jeans und hohen Stiefeln auf. The Little Book of Tom: Bikers enthält Toms früheste Werke für Physique Pictorial , Kake im Biker-Outfit und knisternd heiße Bikerbilder auf kompakten 192 Seiten - voll von harten Kerlen , die sich mit anderen harten Typen in schwarzem Leder verlustieren. Und zwar, ja, auf Motorrädern.

The Prize-Winning International Bestseller'I can't help but be moved by a story about women meeting, fighting, helping each other, looking after one another, and raising their voices against the prejudice and criticism they are subject to.' Cho Nam-joo, author of Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982When a mother allows her thirty-something daughter to move into her apartment, she wants for her what many mothers might say they want for their child: a steady income, and, even better, a good husband with a good job with whom to start a family. But when Green turns up with her girlfriend, Lane, in tow, her mother is unprepared and unwilling to welcome Lane into her home. In fact, she can barely bring herself to be civil. Having centred her life on her husband and child, her daughter's definition of family is not one she can accept. Her daughter's involvement in a case of unfair dismissal involving gay colleagues from the university where she works is similarly strange to her. And yet when the care home where she works insists that she lower her standard of care for an elderly dementia patient who has no family, who travelled the world as a successful diplomat, who chose not to have children, Green's mother cannot accept it. Why should not having chosen a traditional life mean that your life is worth nothing at all?In Concerning My Daughter, translated from Korean by Jamie Chang, Kim Hye-jin lays bare our most universal fears on ageing, death, and isolation, to offer finally a paean to love in all its forms.
