Discover a fresh perspective on modernist literature with Deviant Modernism by Colleen Lamos, published by Cambridge University Press in 2009. This insightful book spans 280 pages and delves into the works of literary giants such as T. S. Eliot, James Joyce, and Marcel Proust. Lamos re-evaluates these central texts, exploring the often overlooked sexual energies and identities that challenge conventional norms.
