Within a critical framework provided by feminist theory, semiotics, and materialist analyses of culture, this work delineates the emergence of specifically identifiable gay male subjectivities as realized in texts and films by gay men. This book pays attention to how race and ethnicity condition and overdetermine the politics of representation.

The contents include: Calling the Questions: Gay male Subjectivity and Agency; History and Its Desublimations; Imagining It Otherwise: Alternative Sexualities in Speculative Fiction; Graphic Specularity; and, Scandalous Narratives.
