"If you thought The Art of Pleasure was HUGE, just wait till you see XXL! For the collector of male nude art, this is a MUST HAVE! 15 pounds!" uncutcock.com, ChicagoUSA |

"La figura de Tom of Finland es reivindicada no ya por su fuerte componente sexual y contestatario frente a los cánones de su época, sino como un artista de prestancia única. TASCHEN, fiel al dibujante finlandés, publica un libro de grandes dimensiones con lo mejor de su ingente obra. ¿Quién no ha imaginado alguna vez con encontrarse en una carretera con esos policías de turgente paqueteo verse rodeado con esos rudos y fornidos vaqueros?"Zero, MadridSpanien |

Dieser Prachtband vereint Toms zahlreiche Talente zu einem visuellen Denkmal mit Kultstatus."Männer, BerlinDeutschland |

"Si "The Art of Pleasure" de Tom of Finland, apporta à l'artiste, jusque là pratiquement inconnu du grand public, une reconnaissance méritée, dépassant la sphère de la communauté gay, Tom of Finland XXL, livre titanesque et majestueux, met en lumière toute l'étendue du talent de Tom et devrait l'installer définitivement dans le royaume de l'excellence en matière d'art. En effet, seul Leonardo da Vinci et Michelangelo ont eut cet honneur avant lui. Pour les gays convaincus que plus c'est grand, mieux c'est, Tom of Finland XXL est d'ors et déjà un ouvrage de référence. Hommage suprême à un très grand artiste."lalucarne.orgBelgien |

“Estamos ante uno de los lanzamientos literarios más importantes de la década: XXL es un libro lujosamente editado que recoge algunas de las mejores ilustraciones de Tom of Finland, sin duda el ilustrado gay más importante de todos los tiempos.”Odisea, MadridSpanien |

"Seu trabalho sempre foi considerado sujo mas vem ganhando destaque por originalidade e com a ascensão da pornografia no mundo das artes. Uma nova coletânea de 1.400 páginas de seu trabalho deve ser lançado pela editora TASCHEN até o final do ano."Revistaladoa, Sao PauloBrasilien |

"Make no mistake; this book is not a Tom of Finland primer. At nearly 700 pages, "XXL" is a big, meaty, tome, spanning the entire compass of Laaksonen's career. It's jammed full of the good stuff, lovingly assembled and edited by Dian Hanson...I believe this authoritative study of Tom of Finland's work will be a treat for long time fans, and its long shelf life will definitely garner new fans of the master's work. Worth every penny."Wayves Magazine, TorontoKanada |

"The scenes of moustachioed men, straining out of their jeans and into each other, divide people - some think it's crass while others think it's really rather hot. For those who fall in the later category, Tom's prodigious output can now be found in one big book from TASCHEN, the incredibly stylish coffee-table book people, that covers all six decades of his career...Love him or loathe him, Tom is forever seared into our gay collective conscious. And here is a book that proves it."Attitude, LondonGroßbritannien |
