Issues of gender and sexuality have, nevertheless, been sidelined by new strands which consider, for example, cognitive, transmedial, national or historical inflections instead. Through consideration of texts including the MTV series \u003ci\u003eFaking It\u003c\/i\u003e and the papers of a nineteenth-century activist, \u003ci\u003eQueer and Feminist Theories of Narrative\u003c\/i\u003e heeds the original call of feminist narratologists for the consideration of a broader and larger corpus of material. Through analysis of issues including the popular representation of lesbian desire, the queer narrative voice, invisibility and power in the digital age, embodiment and cognitive narratology, reading and racial codes, this book argues that a named strand of narrative theory which employs feminist and queer theories as intersectional vectors is contemporary and urgent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal \u003ci\u003eTextual Practice.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTory Young\u003c\/strong\u003e teaches Contemporary and Modernist Literature at ARU, Cambridge, UK.
