Title: Queering contemporary gothic narrative, 1970-2012
Description: "The book explores the development of queer Gothic fiction, contextualizing it with reference to representations of queer sexuality and genders in eighteenth and nineteenth-century Gothic, as well as the sexual-political perspectives generated by the 1970s lesbian and gay liberation movements and the development of queer theory in the 1990s. The book examines the roles that Gothic motifs and narrative strategies play in depicting aspects of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual and intersex experience in contemporary Gothic fiction."--Page [4] of cover.
