Palmer reads novels by Christopher Bram, Philip Hensher, Alan Hollinghurst, Randall Kenan, Shani Mootoo, Sarah Schulman, Ali Smith, Sarah Waters, Jeanette Winterson and others, discussing secrets and disclosure, queer spectrality, the homely and unhomely house, the grotesque, lesbian social invisibility, transgender doubles, and sexuality and race."}
