Possibly the best book of Queer Theory around. - By: Stan, 02 Jun 2008
Possibly the best book of Queer Theory around. Drawing upon Guy Hocquenghem & Jacques Lacan among others, Lee Edelman's theory of sinthomosexuality is both inspiring for subsequent Theory & useful for a better understanding of day-to-day queer existence. The realm of the Symbolic will appeal both to gay Conservatives & to Queer endorsers. The acknowledgement of homophobic discourse, & the reference to Hitchcock films, also demonstrate a broadening of Theory, away from the ivory tower.
