Dreams, desire, darkened streets and the sudden miracles that
appear there, the deep places of the mind. Two groups made these
the heart of a radical project of liberation: queers and
surrealism. Better than many others, queers understand the power of
these dark areas. The rich, complicated culture we've created for
ourselves is constantly ready to allow us to follow our dreams and
fantasies, carried by the surging waves of sexuality into some
pretty and magical places. It's just as clear that the surrealists
were chasing similar adventures as far back as the 'Twenties and
'Thirties. Given the similarity of their motivations, why have the
two so often been in violent opposition to each other? Madder Love
is an anthology of cutting-edge writing that wants to look at that
a little closer. It opens up the surreal possibilities of queer
literature while simultaneously displacing the historic homophobia
of Surrealism. From dream states to erotic obsessions, from the
muttering of the unconscious to parallel worlds (and the weirder
cracks in this one) Madder Love tackles why surrealism can be so
queer, and why being queer can be so surreal.
