Queer in Translation: Sexual Politics Under Neoliberal Islam by Evren Savci

challenging dark emotional informative reflective sad tense medium-paced

3.0

I think that this book had a lot of important questions that are difficult but need to be talked about. The concepts of bare life I found particularly helpful, but I found myself confused with a lot of the discussion of removing identity politics. I guess that may be "the point" in some ways, but I would have liked a little more info. A lot can also be applied to Foucauldian concepts of biopolitics, and it also would have been nice to see a little more of that. overall, very important read, especially for those interested in political theory.
