The Mirror of Love is an epic poem by Alan Moore, written in the form of a romantic letter. Sappho, Michelangelo, Shakespeare, Emily Dickinson, Oscar Wilde, and many others are woven into this rich, visceral piece, which documents the history of same-sex love throughout mankind's history, and comments on its modern-day state. It originally began as a part of the AARGH! Anthology in 1988. AARGH! [Artists Against Rampant Government Homophobia] was a comic book protest against Britain's proposed anti-gay Section 28.[1] In 2004, Moore teamed up with illustrator José Villarrubia, and the duo re-released the work, adding photographs to each poetic passage.[2] It was translated and published in French as Le Miroir de l'amour (November 2006), by Carabas Revolution,[3] in Italian as Lo Specchio dell'Amore (September 2008) by Edizioni BD [4] and in Spanish as El Espejo del amor (November 2008) by Editorial Kraken.[5] In 2020 Giangiacomo Feltrinelli Editori published a new edition with a new Italian translation by Marco Rosary.[6] It was also converted into a stage production directed by actor David Drake.[7]
