Book excerpt: This study investigates the place of sexuality in the writings of Andre Gide. Focusing on his writing of the 1920s and 1930s, the years in which Gide wrote most openly about his homosexuality, and also the years of his most notable left-wing political activity, the work interrogates both the political content of his reflections on his homosexuality and the ways in which his sexuality inflected his political interests.
