New Delhi : Oxford University Press , 2015. 344 p. ; 22 cm. 0.00 A nuanced reading of contemporary literary and cinematic texts from India and its diaspora, this work traces the histories of the '(un)familiar' lesbian in the homophobic realm around us. Focusing on representations and legacies of such femininities, the author shows how female same-sex socialities and female same-sex love straddle terrains both familiar and unfamiliar, arguing that homosexuality and heterosexuality are not in opposition but in a state of constant dialogue with each other.
