On the other hand, some essays note how a postmodern aesthetic, with its valorization of difference, sexual plurality, and gender blurring, assists lesbian cultural production.Among the topics discussed are the shifting definitions of lesbian and postmodern; the potential and danger of this new conceptual territory in theory, literary and visual representation, and popular culture; the lesbian in Hollywood film; actors Jodie Foster and Sandra Bernhard; and works by Jeanette Winterson, Michelle Cliff, and Gloria Anzaldua.Throughout, contributors address the interrelated questions and issues of class, race, ethnicity, postcolonialism, and commodification.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51680979484960,"sku":"NEW0231084102","price":128.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/8131v2YkhRL.jpg?v=1779359415","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-lesbian-postmodern-0231084102","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
