Recensioner i media

"Eminently readable and clearly the product of copious research, the volume is a useful introduction to queer theory as well as to the work of Tomlin and Wagner. Summing Up: Highly recommended. All readers." - CHOICE "Part biography of a relationship, part critical analysis of a comedy partnership, this book gives us a peek into the queer and quirky relationship between Lily Tomlin and Jane Wagner. The book is valuable both for what she says about a deeply creative romantic partnership and for its insights about humor, hilarity, and the way they can be embedded in rather than antithetical to feminism. Who says feminists lack a sense of humor?" - Jack Halberstam, author of The Queer Art of Failure
