This book analyzes representations of otherness in a variety of romantic Anglophone texts from the 1950s to the 2010s using an array of approaches. Together, contributors suggest a trajectory of increasing openness to diversity, but also the many ways in which popular fiction continues to fall short, perpetuating old tropes and stereotypes.
