Possibly the best book of Queer Theory around. Drawing upon Guy Hocquenghem and Jacques Lacan among others, Lee Edelman's theory of sinthomosexuality is both inspiring for subsequent Theory and useful for a better understanding of day-to-day queer existence. The realm of the Symbolic will appeal both to gay Conservatives and to Queer endorsers. The acknowledgement of homophobic discourse, and the reference to Hitchcock films, also demonstrate a broadening of Theory, away from the ivory tower.
