What does it mean to read queerly? The Edinburgh Companion to Queer Reading upholds intersectional thinking to recognise the wide currency and appeal of queer studies for a new generation of scholars, activists, students and interested allies. Its four interconnecting parts - 'transing queer readings', 'reading queer ecologies', 'queer reading as practice' and 'reading queer futures' - speak to, and help to critique and foreground, expansive queer epistemologies. Contributors evocatively explore the relationships between queerness and genders, embodiments, race, narrative, methodology, history, literature, media and art. Bringing together emerging and established queer theorists, this timely collection demonstrates how germane queer readings, theories and companions are to the livelihood of interdisciplinary research and humanistic inquiry in the 2020s.

Industry Reviews

Queer reading can be casual or urgent, intimate or collective, playful or critical, personal or political - or all at once! In the depth and variety of its brilliant approaches to queer reading, The Edinburgh Companion to Queer Reading points us to the power and possibilities of the encounter between body, text and world, all the while keeping us attentive to the radical potential of reading itself.--Neel Ahuja, University of Maryland
