Book Presentation:
Uses examples from film and literature to define a new genre of Queer Gothic literature and demonstrate how it was shaped by women writers.
The New Queer Gothic: Reading Queer Girls and Women in Contemporary Fiction and Film comprises literary, cultural, and film analysis to situate and define the New Queer Gothic as a product of woman-authored twentieth and twenty-first-century novels. The first in-depth analysis of contemporary queer and Gothic texts to focus on the subjectivity, characterization, and representation of queer girls and women, it investigates and celebrates the relationship between queer feminine identity and the Gothic, beyond purely paranoid readings. Using contemporary texts and theory, it focuses on the representation of queer girls and women in contemporary queer and Gothic texts. It includes original analyses of a selection of global film and fiction texts released in the past fifteen years.
