In his portraits of beautiful men, Pfeiffer celebrates his quest for beauty and glamor with sophistication, irony, and wit. Pfeiffer leads us into a world between reality and reverie, snapshot and mise-en-scene. "The book is a photo album from Arcadia. With simple means, Pfeiffer creates intelligent and classic images of beauty and bliss, imbued with a wistful awareness of their artifice. Stylish, suggestive, and erotic, his images are an encyclopedia of desire" (Publisher's blurb).
