QUEER AS FOLK. Contributions are sought for a collection of essays
(tentatively) titled: "Queer as Text: Critically Cruising Gender,
Performance and Sexuality in 'Queer as Folk'." Press in negotiation.
Essays may focus on both the British and American versions of the show,
and analyses that critically compare both versions are especially
welcome. Topics may include:

- intersections of gender performance, sexuality and class within the
show

- deconstructions (and interpellations) of 'queer' (that is, how the show
aligns or disaligns itself with current traditions of queer theory)

- themes of alterity, alienation and exile vs power, pride and inclusion
within the show
