Highlights include Michael Cobb against the primacy of the couple in ethical analysis and political recognition; Carla Fraccero, for her endnotes (which are a miniature guide to queer theory); Jonathan Goldberg on Lucretius and a kind of affective, polychronic redoing of atomism; Joseph Litvak, on sycophants, Jews, and HUAC; Michael Moon on the profound sadism of some accounts of Darger; Jeff Nunokawa, because you can hardly believe how he writes ("how tinny, how thin, how programmatic queer theory’s business-as-usual opposition to fixed identity can sound when it is set next to the voice of the take-no-prisoners prophet we hear in “Is the Rectum a Grave?”; how pale, how paint-by-number the sight of its unfixing can look next to the flames of the funeral pyre where Bersani stages its immolation"); and Bethany Schneider's great line: "Muñoz’s hopeful metaphor of space-clearing, deterritorializing, and reoccupying is no metaphor when it comes to Oklahoma."
