Bringing together a variety of contemporary writers and filmmakers of Muslim heritage engaged in vindicating same-sex desire, the book approaches queer Muslims in the diaspora as figures forced to negotiate their identities according to the expectations of the West and of their migrant Muslim communities. The book examines 3 main themes: the depiction of queer desire across racial and national borders, the negotiation of Islamic femininities and masculinities, and the positioning of the queer Muslim self in time and place. This study will be of interest to scholars, as well as to advanced general readers and postgraduate students, interested in Muslims, queerness, diaspora and postcolonialism. It brings nuance and complexity to an often simplified and controversial topic.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 156mmAuthor: Alberto Fernández CarbajalGenre: Films & TVBook Series: Multicultural TextualitiesTopic: Literary Criticism, Society & Culture, LGBTQ+, Gender Sex & Relationships, Philosophy & SpiritualityItem Width: 16mmItem Weight: 422gRelease Year: 2020 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
