Queering the Interior problematizes the familiar space of âhomeâ. It deploys a queer lens to view domestic interiors and conventions and uncovers some of the complexities of homemaking for queer people. Each of the bookâs six sections focuses on a different room or space inside the home. The journey starts with entryways and continues through kitchens living spaces bedrooms bathrooms and finally closets and studies. In each case up to three specialists bring their disciplinary expertise and queer perspectives to bear. The result is a fascinating collection of essays by scholars from literary studies geography sociology anthropology history and art history. The contributors use historical and sociological case studies; spatial art and literary analyses; interviews; and experimental visual approaches to deliver fresh detailed and grounded perspectives on the home and its queer dimensions. A highly creative approach to the analysis of domestic spaces Queering the Interior makes an important contribution to the fields of gender studies social and cultural history cultural studies design architecture anthropology sociology and cultural geography.
