Uncloseting Drama: American Modernism and Queer Performance

by 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.
