The (in)visible lesbian : the contradictory representations of female homoeroticism in contemporary Spain

J. Robbins

This article positions lesbian literature within post-Franco Spanish literature, demonstrating how works by Spanish lesbian authors and/or with lesbian themes have been marginalized publicly and academically, even after the liberalizations that have dramatically transformed Spanish society since the death of Franco. The article calls for a more thoughtful reading of lesbian literature in particular, and women_s literature in general, providing a model with its encapsulated readings of works by Marosa Gómez Pereira, Ana María Moix, and Lucía Etxebarria.[Copies are available from: Haworth Document Delivery Center.
