Synopsis

This collection significantly broadens the understanding of 'queer London studies' by integrating diverse perspectives from social history, cultural geography, visual culture, and ethnography. It features essays from international scholars and emerging voices, exploring topics such as activist communities, AIDS, art, digital archives, drag, lesbian Londons, bohemianism, sex reform, and queer Black history. Moving beyond existing literature that often focuses on white gay men, this book reflects the current state of a vital and expanding field.
