Understanding Narrative Identity Through Lesbian and Gay Youth

Edmund Coleman-Fountain

    Research output: Book/ReportBookpeer-review

    Abstract

    This book contests the idea that lesbian and gay categories are disappearing, and that sexuality is becoming fluid, by showing how young people use them in a world in which heterosexuality is privileged. Exploring identity making, the book shows how old modernist stories of sexual being entwine with narratives of normality.
