More about the book

Exploring the intersection of gay and Jewish identity, the book examines American and Israeli film and theater from the 1960s to today. It analyzes various plays and films, highlighting conventions that construct and critique the relationship between Jewishness and gay identity. The author investigates how gay-Jewish playwrights and filmmakers have contributed to reevaluating sexual norms within Judaism, ultimately integrating GLBT Jewish members into the broader historical narrative of the Jewish community.
