Queering the Text

Exploring themes of queer identity within a rich historical context, this collection engages with traditional midrashim and medieval homoerotic love poetry. Drawing inspiration from Jewish feminist thought, the author utilizes narrative techniques reminiscent of ancient rabbis to reimagine and affirm queer lives throughout the three-thousand-year history of the Jewish people. The stories challenge conventional interpretations and envision alternate realities, blending the sacred and the contemporary in a unique literary tapestry.
