Fictions of Masculinity M. T. Richardson blindly donning the cast offsWe are just beginning to understand masculinity as a fiction or a localizable, historical, and therefore unstable construct. This book points the way to a much needed interrogation of the many modes of masculinity, as represented in literature. Both women and men who are engaged in critical thinking about genders and sexualities will find these essays always thoughtful and often provocative. Thas E.
