Stan Hawkins’s new book, Queerness in Pop Music, published by Routledge, addresses the playfulness of much pop music, offering insights into how discourses of resistance are mediated through pleasure.
Music analysis is woven into this, illuminating aspects of parody, nostalgia, camp, naivety, masquerade, irony, and mimesis in pop music. The principal aim is to uncover the subversive strategies of pop artists through a wide range of audiovisual texts that situate the debates on gender and sexuality within an aesthetic context that is highly stylized and ritualized.
Freya Jarman, author of Queer Voices (Department of Music, University of Liverpool).
