Original and provocative, it provides an impressive display of the new scholarship in these areas."-David Roman, University of Southern California "By problematizing both 'hispanisms' and 'homosexualities,' this collection goes beyond the mere application of queer theory to Hispanic studies; it offers a series of meditations out of which both fields emerge enriched."-Arnaldo Cruz-Malave, Fordham University
