In Gorilla , Tedd Gott and Kathryn Weir provide a compelling and sometimes disturbing account of our relationship with this noble, intelligent animal. From Tarzan to King Kong, they track the gorilla through the history of expeditionary narratives, literature and film, where it has acted as a screen upon which fears of sexuality, theories of criminality and narratives of humanity's relationship with primates have been projected. At times amusing, moving and unsettling, and packed with information and anecdote, Gorilla presents a notable history of this animal's influence on our culture, as well as its plight at the hands of humankind.
