Joining Charles Adrian for the 54th Second-Hand Book Factory is Ben Walters whose work life takes him to, between and around film, moving image, cabaret, performance and queer culture.

Oh, and there's a video of Justin Vivian Bond singing The Golden Age Of Hustlers here. [Warning: two instances of possibly offensive language]
