Hong Kong is a queer space in a queer time. In this ground-breaking study, Tang explores how the impossibly dense spaces of neoliberal Hong Kong enable and curtail the emergence of lesbian life. Theoretically astute and ethnographically rich, this book brings us into bedrooms, living rooms, classrooms, churches, offices, cafes, streets, and neighborhoods to interrogate the spatial conditions of desire. -- David L. Eng, University of Pennsylvania
