Abstract
- "Queer Economic Dissonance and Victorian Literature" is a scholarly monograph that explores the intersection of economic desire and interpersonal relations in nineteenth-century literature. The book examines various economic strategies depicted in Victorian fiction and non-fiction prose, challenging the emerging norms of economic discourse. The author analyzes works by authors such as Charles Dickens, Charlotte Bronte, George Eliot, Mary Seacole, and Oscar Wilde, highlighting the diverse and unconventional economic practices portrayed in their writings. The book offers a nuanced and historical perspective on Victorian desire and its significance in affective relationships beyond the heterosexual dyad. [Extracted from the article]
