Urban and rural landscapes predominantly reflect straight values and ways of living, but what if queers decided to do something about that?
Manny, a gay antihero, uses queerscapes-his own unique method of reading the landscape-to expose and disrupt straight hegemony by taking on those who do so much to maintain it-the middle classes.
"Jenks gets it all right. Homoland is an iconoclastic and massively pleasurable read, delving into the life of a young gay man as he tries to throw himself into a world of love, lust, and art. Deep connections are made through experiences of cruising, and relationships and friendships of different types are dissected with a fine eye for emotional detail. Jenks renders the book with a powerfully compelling and endlessly readable prose style that exhibits a real skill for making you feel and relate to the rich characters that he has created." -Thomas Moore, author of A Certain Kind of Light and In Their Arms
