Vaibhav Saria

Hijras, Lovers, Brothers

Surviving Sex and Poverty in Rural India

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This engrossing ethnography of one of South Asia's third gendered or trans populations reveals not a group of marginalized others but a way of life composed of laughter, struggles, and desires. The book shows how hijras trouble how we read queerness, kinship, and the psyche.
