- This single-authored monograph of over 80,000 words unites critical streams in queer theory, religious iconography, literary history, and a wide and varied corpus of over twenty different French and Belgian fiction authors, as well as other writers in English and over 40 painters and sculptors. It reflects almost seven years of work in libraries in the UK, France, and Ireland. The work innovatively relates canonical and lesser-known authors according to how they bridge two rarely-related cultural discourses. Informed by psychoanalysis, feminism, and history of art, the interdisciplinary approach invites a wide scholarly readership.
