Queer Intersectionality: Voices, Struggles, and Identities in South Asia: South Asian Literature in Focus

Editat de Nizara Hazarika, Namrata Pathak
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 iul 2026
Queer Intersectionality is a comprehensive exploration of the complexities and diversities of the queer communities and their lived experiences in South Asia. By focusing on the intersectional lenses of gender, caste, class, religion, and regional identity, it presents a nuanced understanding of queer lives in South Asian countries like India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Afghanistan. The volume draws on a wide range of theoretical, cultural, and social perspectives while offering a critical analysis of how queer identities are shaped up and resisted in different regions and subregions of South Asia.  The chapters explore not only the challenges faced by queer individuals but also their resilience, resistance, and creative strategies for survival and empowerment. By bringing together voices from activists, scholars, and community members, the book highlights the dynamism of queer intersectionality in South Asia and challenge the dominant narratives of sexuality and identity in the region. The volume will be essential reading for students of South Asian Literature, Gender Studies, and LGBTQ Studies.
