Queering the Interior problematizes the familiar space of 'home'.
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 book's 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.
