Same Sex/Different Text? by Brigitte Mahuzier; Karen McPherson; Charles A. Porter; Ralph Sarkonak

Gay and Lesbian Writing in French

There are French writers in France and North America who are gay or lesbian, but do they practice lesbian and gay writing? In 'Same Sex/Different Text? Gay and Lesbian Writing in French', lesbian and gay writers are juxtaposed; photographs and texts look at each other; and literary observers ask about 'gay erotics', queer rhetoric, and how to sort out the effects of sexual preference, homophobia, time and place, and literary and artistic tradition.
