Review of 'In a queer time and place' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Incredible and insightful. first chapter and the last chapter felt the most important and strongest! If you are interested in queer theory and/or art, this is a must read. Halberstam points to some key components of queerness that are so often overlooked and not spoken about (the impacts of space and temporality and locale). So good.

Leila J. Rupp: A Desired Past (Paperback, 2002, University Of Chicago Press) 4 stars

Review of 'A Desired Past' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Very informative read and am pleasantly surprised by Rupp's investment with including race, ethnicity and class into same sex history. I was, though, dissapointed by how little Rupp discussed and analyzed AIDS. Overall, a good and important read for all queers!
