Summary:

This scholarly volume explores the multidimensional representation of queer identities, narratives, and politics across literature, media, and popular culture, with a focus on both Indian and American contexts. The book critically examines queer sexualities through contemporary narratives, addressing gaps in existing scholarship on LGBTQ+ issues. It delves into topics such as gender, identity, history, nationalism, media representation, race, disability, and religion. The collection is divided into three sections: Queer Power Dynamics and Agency in Cinema and Literature, Embodying Queerness, and Vernacular Perspectives, offering insights into local and global frameworks. Intended for academics and researchers in gender studies, literature, media studies, and cultural studies, the book provides a comparative lens to understand the evolving politics of queer identities in different cultural and historical milieus.
