The Ethics of Becoming-Pig

• Format: ePub

Rezensionen

"In his study of the abject use to which bodies are joyously put by gay male sex pigs, João Florêncio extends the future-oriented strand of queer theory in new directions and toward "unknown islands" of "unforeseen pleasures," by suggesting that such horizons of queer masculine self-invention and solidarity might be located no place other than right there in the trough."
