"Building on unprecedented research, Queer Behavior is the first substantial study of Scott Burton's anti-hierarchical, eclectic, desire-oriented art of the 1970s. Getsy has written a masterful work–rigorous, encyclopedic, sympathetic, and inspired–toward a loving recuperation of an artist whose work has at times been eclipsed in histories of art and performance. Argument-driven and lushly narrated, Getsy's writing hybridizes close analysis, critical biography, cultural history, and art historiography. The resulting book is unyieldingly good, at times breathtakingly so."–Dominic Johnson, author of Unlimited Action: The Performance of Extremity in the 1970s
