Relocations: Queer Suburban Imaginaries

Karen Tongson

What queer lives, loves and possibilities teem within suburbia’s little boxes? Moving beyond the imbedded urban/rural binary, Relocations offers the first major queer cultural study of sexuality, race and representation in the suburbs. Focusing on the region humorists have referred to as Lesser Los Angeles -a global prototype for sprawl-Karen Tongson weaves through suburbia’s nowhere spaces to survey our spatial imaginaries: the aesthetic, creative and popular materials of the new suburbia.
