Perverse Taiwan

Herausgeber: Chiang, Howard; Wang, Yin

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book enriches and reorients our understanding of postcolonial queer East Asia. Challenging a heteronormative understanding of Taiwan's past and present, it provides fresh critical analyses of a range of topics from queer criminality and literature in the 1950s and 1960s to the growing popularity of cross-dressing performance.
