Lesbians on Television: New Queer Visibility & The Lesbian Normal - Paperback

by Kate McNicholas Smith (Author)

In Lesbians on Television, Kate McNicholas Smith maps concurrent contemporary shifts in lesbian visibility within popular media, focusing on the small screens of Europe and North America. Central to these shifts has been a re-imagining of queer lives - or a 'new queer visibility' - as LGBTQ+ characters have become increasingly visible within popular culture.
