The first anthology to offer full-length state-of-the-art lesbian and gay theory, investigating representations of sex and sexual difference in literature, film, video, music and photography. "This is the first anthology to offer full-strength, state-of-the-art lesbian and gay theory in all its immediacy, all its sophistication. `Theory' means something new in the hands of these two generations of passionate activist/intellectuals --Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick, author of Epistemology of the Closet."
