Review # 1 was written on 2010-03-09 00:00:00 Derrick Walker This collection contains Reid-Pharr's extraordinary "Tearing the Goat's Flesh." I am a touch suspicious of Reid-Pharr's alleged surprise at his publisher's demand that he edit his prose to professional standards of decorum, but don't mind because the larger point he makes in that account is endlessly provocative: what is queer about a queer studies that cannot use the language of sexuality as it circulates in queer communities? I don't mean to make it sound as though either this essay or the book as a whole is "about" this issue. In fact, this subject occupies about 15 lines. But it's typical of Reid-Pharr at his best that such a small, almost thrown-away observation proves so immensely rich. |
