The Big Penis Book - Rezensionen
"We Angelenos love things easy. We wait for the DVD rather than going to the trouble of a movie. We'll order-in much more often than we get snazzed up to go out and when we do bother to pick up a book, it's paperback over hardcover every time. Then there are the things that deserve the effort and extra packaging: a premiere at the Arclight, the omakase at Matsuhisa and if you found yourself at alpha male on Thursday night for TASCHEN's Big Penis Book release party, you'd know there's at least one subject that should never be offered as a soft cover.... As typical for TASCHEN, the book is as much an objet d'art as it is a publication. Crack it open and each of the 400-plus photos have the pungent musk of ink about them. Each photographer has either an essay or interview included, in English, German and French.... There are some people who will be turned off by the high-falutin' ambitions of The Big Penis Book. They prefer their porn without introduction, in cheap glossy magazines that you throw away once soiled. Those guys might cynically sneer that they don't need a veneer of pretension to enjoy their smut. Okay, but that's not really the point. As long as you have a pulse these photos will turn you on, but they're also interesting artifacts of the Sexual Revolution, making them erotic in another way. Many of the models in the book were hustlers and criminals; almost all of them are dead, mostly from AIDS or drugs. The photographers were usually only marginally aware of their own gay identity and often hated themselves for what they did -- and all that bleeds through onto the photo. You look at these hung guys and like all good porn, you fantasize; but not just about what you'd like to do with him, but who he was, what his life was like and what happened to him."popnography.com, Los AngelesUSA |

"The Big Penis Book, il nuovo libro fotografico di TASCHEN, edito sulla scia dell'enorme successo del Big Book of Breast, esplora l'antica e umana fascinazione per l'immagine del fallo, sopratutto se di taglia grande. Il volume è illustrato da oltre 400 fotografie storiche, incluse vere e proprie rarità, come l'archivio segreto di John Holmes. Dian Hanson, l'editor, è una veterana della pubblicistica erotica (suoi sono titoli celebri quali Puritan, Outlaw Biker, e Leg Show, da sempre nel mirino dei puritani americani). eppure nonostante 25 anni di carriera nel soft porn. The Big Penis Book è la prima volta di Dian Hanson in fatto di erotismo maschile. Il Big Penis Book è stata un'esperienza del tutto nuova. Ho cominciato a capire il tipo di attrazione che provano i gay" dice. Cosa l'ha attratta maggiormente? "Mi piacciono gli uomini che diano l'impressione di essere dei bruti, con qualcosa di selvaggio nel loro aspetto. Tatuaggi, piercing, petti villosi, cicatrici. Ho scoperto che mi attirano moltssimo le fotodi uomini prigione."L'Espresso, RomaItalien |

" - de 2% des mâles possèdent un pénis de plus de 20 cm. Après le Big Book of Breasts, TASCHEN réunit plus de 400 photos inouïes de ces phénomènes, dont le légendaire John Holmes (porno star mythique crédité de 32 cm)."Lou, BrusselsBelgien |

"Après le succès de The Big Book of Breasts, les éditons TASCHEN présente le compagnon idéal, The Big Penis Book. Quand il s'agit de plaisir, la taille n'a pas d'importance, comme nous le savons tous c'est la qualité et non pas la quantité qui compte. Mais nous allons l'admettre: un grand pénis est indéniablement convaincant. Big épaules, de grands revers, et de grands cheveux peuvent aller et venir, mais le grand pénis ne passe jamais de mode. Avec ceux qui possèdent plus de 8 pouces (20 cm) qui constituent moins de 2% de la population mondiale, cette rare accessoire aura toujours quelque chose de fascinant. (...) Ce volumineux ouvrage est abondamment illustré de plus de 400 photos historiques, des hommes spectaculaires, des fonds de dotation, y compris les rares photos du légendaire John Holmes. (...) Et si cela ne suffit pas, le livre se termine par une surprise comparable à la Guinness Book of Records' Norma Stitz en vedette dans The Big Book of Breasts!"livresphotos.com, ParisFrankreich |

"The Big Penis Book is a big book (an LP-sized hardcover, 384 pages) celebrating supersized stiffies and the photographers who immortalized them. It's the follow-up to TASCHEN's 2006 hit The Big Book of Breasts, also edited by Dian Hanson, and boasts more than 400 photos of some startlingly major tent poles, including rare pics of "the 13-and-only" John Holmes. Hanson, once dubbed "the most cerebral pornographer in America" by New York magazine, offers us not just the pictures, but also a fascinating history of penile aesthetics and erotic male nude photography. You seldom get a book where the fact that it's a good read is a bonus. The big wangs, however, are nestled within a lot of winning stories, plus once you get past cock shock and start actually looking at the photos, you get a sense of their varied beautiful, campy, artistic and sometimes bizarre aesthetics. The Big Penis Book will definitely be the life of your literary library; for the record, though, the rarity of the featured specimens is clearly noted. Hanson says that Alfred Kinsey found only 1.8 percent of his research subjects came in at 8 inches erect. (Wait a second ... is he gone? OK, gay men and straight girls ... get the book and turn to page 232. Wish-list material? Or do you think it would be like trying to fit a dragon in a doghouse? Grab a cocktail. Let's talk ...."Orlando Weekly, OrlandoUSA |
