Eroticism and Containment - Notes From the Flood Plain

But whether the gendering of the subject follows the dictates of conservative politics or the radical agenda of a marginalised interest, the essays reveal an erotic overflow - the "flood" - that cannot be contained within any one gendered identity. In examining how the erotic escapes containment, these essays disclose problems inherent in the intersections of gender and desire.
