Literary and Visual Representations of HIV/AIDS: Forty Years Later explores how film and literature about the HIV/AIDS crisis expand upon the issues generated by the epidemic. Looking at media from the 1980s to today, the representations of HIV/AIDS and their political ramifications shift across time.

This book revisits representations of AIDS in the 1980s in the U.S. in order to highlight a discourse of trauma and witness that emerged in the wake of a crisis. The book also emphasizes the potential of literary language to call attention to historical trauma where other discourses may fail.
