E-raamat: Now You See Her: How Lesbian Culture Won Over America

Now You See Her is a comprehensive look at how lesbians and queer women have both influenced and been impacted by American culture. Anne Cremieux's detailed record offers a nuanced perspective and intersectional overview that's long overdue. From athletics to art to performance in music or on screen, Now You See Her accurately reflects the ways in which LGBTQ+ women have experienced themselves and each other.Trish Bendix, author and journalist, former editor-in-chief of AfterEllen.com This ingenious and spirited exploration of modern lesbian culture from the 70s to the present links representation to culture to politics with knowledgeable ease. Cremieux has created a scholarly guidebook, alternating her analyses with interviews and reviving a powerful sense of lesbian life at a moment when its in danger of disappearing. Now You See Her deserves to be assigned to every gender studies class... and every Girl Scout troop, too. I am grateful.B. Ruby Rich, author and film critic, Chick Flicks: Theories and Memories of the Feminist Film Movement and The New Queer Cinema: The Directors Cut How wonderful to have this gift from Anne Crémieux, a book as generous in its scope as in its attitude. Richly informed by lucidly deployed theory and brilliantly responsive to the particularities of a wide range of media, Now You See Her is also a celebration of the exuberance, diversity, gorgeousness and importance of lesbian visibility. Anne Crémieux is not afraid to confront awkward questions or political complexityporn, trans, butch, negative images, theyre all herebut, with its inspiring interviews with a range of practitioners, this is above all a book full of joy.Richard Dyer, professor, film scholar and gay critic, Now you see it: studies on lesbian and gay film, The Culture of Queers
