{"product_id":"queer-a-graphic-history","title":"Queer: A Graphic History","description":"Activist-academic Meg-John Barker and cartoonist Jules Scheele illuminate the histories of queer thought and LGBTQ+ action in this groundbreaking non-fiction graphic novel.  From identity politics and gender roles to privilege and exclusion, Queer explores how we came to view sex, gender and sexuality in the ways that we do; how these ideas get tangled up with our culture and our understanding of biology, psychology and sexology; and how these views have been disputed and challenged.   Along the way we look at key landmarks which shift our perspective of what's 'normal' - Alfred Kinsey's view of sexuality as a spectrum, Judith Butler's view of gendered behaviour as a performance, the play Wicked, or moments in Casino Royale when we're invited to view James Bond with the kind of desiring gaze usually directed at female bodies in mainstream media.\nPresented in a brilliantly engaging and witty style, this is a unique portrait of the universe of queer thinking.","brand":"Independent Publishers Group","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ 6.85 x 10 x 0.47 \/ 176","offer_id":47398621741205,"sku":"9781785780714","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/3213\/1989\/files\/3902c62b5678f43e5d95db958ba39b195a7dd23ec4a8a86eab8290a504b5a801.jpg?v=1780330277","url":"https:\/\/gcccomicshtx.com\/products\/queer-a-graphic-history","provider":"Gulf Coast Cosmos Comics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
