He withdrew to a cottage on the bleak coast at Dungeness, as he puts it "a hermit in the desert of illness". These journals cover time spent living at the cottage, including the filming of "The Garden" and videos for the Pet Shop Boys, the conceiving of "Edward II", the contracting of the tuberculosis that nearly dragged him down, and his emergence as a bold champion of gay rights. At Dungeness he also mused on his past life: his father who force-fed him and once threw him through a window, his being discovered in bed with another boy at prep school, his eventual coming out at art school in the company of David Hockney and Patrick Proctor, his affairs with Robert Mapplethorpe and the serial murderer Michele Lupo, and his career in films - he describes himself as the "most fortunate film maker of his generation". "Modern Nature" is at once a volume of autobiography, a lament for a lost generation and a celebration of gay sexuality.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***'Michael Derek Elworthy Jarman (31 Jan 1942 - 19 Feb 1994) was an English film director, stage designer, author and gay rights activist. On 22 Dec 1986, Jarman was diagnosed as HIV positive and discussed his condition in public. His illness prompted him to move to Prospect Cottage, Dungeness, in Kent, near the nuclear power station. In 1994, he died of an AIDS-related illness in London, aged 52. He was an atheist. He is buried in the graveyard at St Clement's Church, Old Romney, Kent. In his last years, Jarman was emotionally and practically supported by the companionship of Keith Collins, a handsome young man he'd met in 1987. While not lovers (Collins had his own partner), the friendship became essential for both of them. Jarman left Prospect Cottage to him.' (Wiki) ***A first printing of the first edition of Derek Jarman's "Modern Nature", in near fine collectable condition. An uncommon book. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Codice articolo 8255
