{"product_id":"queer-exposures-ryan-long-9780822946694","title":"Queer Exposures: Sexuality and Photography in Roberto Bola's Fiction and Poetry","description":"Roberto Bola o (1953-2003) stands out among recent Latin American writers because of his unique combination of critical acclaim, popularity, and literary significance. \u003ci\u003eQueer Exposures\u003c\/i\u003e analyzes two central but understudied topics in Bola o's fiction and poetry: sexuality and photography. Moving beyond a consideration of how his texts represent these topics, Ryan F. Long demonstrates that, when considered in tandem, they form the basis for a new innovative and critical approach. Emphasizing the processes of exposure associated with photography and sexuality, especially queer sexuality, provides readers and scholars with a versatile method for comprehending Bola o's constellation of texts. With close readings of a broad range of texts, from poetry written just after his arrival in Spain in the late 1970s to his posthumously published novels, \u003ci\u003eQueer Exposures\u003c\/i\u003e concludes that an emphasis on sexuality and photography is essential for understanding how Bola o's texts function in dialogue with one another to elucidate and critique the interrelations of writing, visual representation, and power.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ryan Long\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0822946696\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780822946694\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Pittsburgh Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/20\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.30w x 1.40d","brand":"Ryan Long","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43986516115711,"sku":"9780822946694","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b5dd338b-9cb4-46ab-b3a3-81c28bd33a8b.jpg?v=1683283807","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/queer-exposures-ryan-long-9780822946694","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
