<P>First published in 1992, <I>Sexual Sameness </I>examines the differing textual strategies male and female writers have developed to celebrate homosexuality. Examining such writers as E.M. Forster, James Baldwin, Sylvia Townsend Warner and Audre Lourde, this wide-ranging book demonstrates how literature has been one of the few cultural spaces in which sexual outsiders have been able to explore forbidden desires.</P><P>From the humiliating trials of Oscar Wilde to the appalling stigmatisation of people living with AIDS, <I>Sexual Sameness </I>reveals the persistent homophobia that has until recently almost completely inhibited our understanding of lesbian and gay writing. In opening up homosexual literature to informed and objective methods of reading, <I>Sexual Sameness </I>will be of interest to a large lesbian and gay readership, as well as to students of gender studies, literary studies and the social sciences. </P>
