Queer Intercorporeality: Bodily Disruption of
Straight Space explores the transgressive potential
of queer embodiment through the experiences of
transgendered people. This work engages with
theoretical frames that radically reconfigure
concepts of subjectivity and disrupts traditional
understandings of both the mind/body split and the
body as a separate and contained entity. Drawing on
Deleuze and Guattari s version of the becoming body
this work locates the body as a vibrant multiplicity
of particles capable of infinite connections and
creative innovations. Through approaching embodiment
as an intercorporeal and never ending process
Saunders explores the spatial settings, such as
family, which play a major role in the way that
bodies are formulated and the directions they take.
Exploring queer as a spatial term this book further
explores queer bodies as existing at an angle to the
heteronormative straight line. Engaging with the
dynamics of straight space this work investigates the
bodily affect on those who move beyond the limited
boundaries of identity and anatomical understandings
and embrace a space of intermezzo or in-between-ness.
