Zusammenfassung:
Providing an exploration of key moments in queer literary history, 'Never By Itself Alone' changes our sense of both the American literary and political landscapes from the late 1940s through the 21st century. Grundy presents a comprehensive history of post-war queer writing in Boston and San Francisco, intertwining analysis of lesbian, gay, and queer writing, and insisting on the link between activism and literature. The book centres a host of underrepresented writers, especially writers of color and those with gender non-conforming identities, and challenges the Stonewall exceptionalism of queer historiography.
