This book of critical rural geography breaks new ground by drawing attention to sex and sexualities outside the metropolis. It explores sexualities and sexual experiences in a variety of rural and marginal spaces, with international contributions from literary and cultural studies, lesbian and gay studies, geography, history and law. Topics include a lesbian in rural England, sexual life in rural Wales, sexuality in rural South Africa, scandal in the American South (sex, race and politics), nature and homosexuality in literature, Derry/Londonderry as a sexual space, and how ‘country folk’ are sexualised in popular culture.
