Further Details Title: Queer: A Graphic History Condition: New Description: 'Queer: A Graphic History Could Totally Change the Way You Think About Sex and Gender' Vice 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. Presented in a brilliantly engaging and witty style, this is a unique portrait of the universe of queer thinking.

  1. Shipping was fast! However, before buying I tried to find out more about their listing - it said it included a "12" vinyl album with CD". Their reply simply repeated what the listing said - I wanted to know more about the CD that was included. Turns out it was a packaged deal - the CD was included inside the album jacket, no insert or track listing with the CD, which I would have liked to have had to match in storing like the rest of my CDs. It's a great value, but a little disappointing.

  2. Order arrived today in undamaged, new condition, exactly as advertised. Competitively priced. Though the processing/shipping time left something to be desired, and the seller failed to reply to my email inquiry as to why it did not ship in a timely manner, otherwise it was a smooth transaction. I have purchased from this seller many times and have always been very happy with their prices and the quality of their product. I'll continue to give them my business and recommend them to others.
