American Modernism and Queer Performance
Nick Salvato
In this elegant book, modernism is illuminated through little-known but striking works by Ezra Pound, Gertrude Stein, and others who revived the “closet drama”—plays written largely for private reading—as a means of exploring forbidden sexualities.
Nick Salvato is assistant professor of theater, Cornell University. He lives in Ithaca, NY.
