| Summary |
"This book is a groundbreaking look at the new sexual reality in Central, Eastern, and Southeast Europe after the fall of communism. The book presents the kind of candid discussion of sexual identities, sexual politics, sexual practices, and gender arrangements that was often censored and rarely discussed openly before the demise of Communist regimes in 1989"--Jacket. |
