In Space No-one can Hear
Queers Scream
Are you an Australian
Queer and like Science Fiction?
I am writing a book about gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender
and queer Australians who watch science
fiction film and television and read science fiction literature.
What is it that makes science
fiction attractive to queer audiences?
This will be a book to allow
queer Australians a way to tell their own personal stories about how they came
to like science fiction and what is it that keeps us going back for more.
What is it about our gay, lesbian,
bisexual, transgender or queer identities that is reflected or ignored in
science fiction?
