The LGBT agenda for too long has been dominated by pragmatic issues like same-sex marriage and gays in the military. It has been stifled by this myopic focus on the present, which is short-sighted and assimilationist. "Cruising Utopia" seeks to break the present stagnancy by cruising ahead. Drawing on the work of Ernest Bloch, Jose Esteban Munoz recalls the queer past for guidance in presaging its future. He considers the work of seminal artists and writers such as Andy Warhol, LeRoi Jones, Frank O'Hara, Ray Johnson, Fred Herko, Samuel Delany, and Elizabeth Bishop, alongside contemporary performance and visual artists like Dynasty Handbag, My Barbarian, Luke Dowd, Tony Just, and Kevin McCarty in order to decipher the anticipatory illumination of art and its uncanny ability to open windows to the future. In a startling repudiation of what the LGBT movement has held dear, Munoz contends that queerness is instead a futurity bound phenomenon, a 'not yet here' that critically engages pragmatic presentism. Part manifesto, part love-letter to the past and the future, "Cruising Utopia" argues that the here and now are not enough and issues an urgent call for the revivification of the queer political imagination.

第六章看哭。其實還是有很多疑慮，但是閱讀體驗本身真的不是蓋的！再加上看到作者去世瞭...聯係到書裏不少的小自傳，突然之間覺得我們或者也在ecstasy的瞬間刺破瞭時間和空間、已經凝固的、此時此地的和將來未來的薄膜，在不同、但注定相似的烏托邦裏遇見過呢。是非常親切、動感和流暢的寫作瞭！（同樣都是punk，Edelman果然和那個queer theory心理測試所說，是個每天聽the cure的post暗黑小子
评分對於queerness as a "not-yet-conscious"的理解非常有意思，intro很難理解但正文還好。
评分重口味文藝範的學術作品，本學期最佳閱讀體驗。發展瞭Halberstam的queer art of failure，通過烏托邦創造齣超越當下的temporality和spatiality。這種烏托邦區彆於白日夢，因為他寓於曆史上的酷兒集體鬥爭和當下的酷兒生活潛能——這也決定瞭此烏托邦非normalize的烏托邦。打臉庸俗化的酷兒運動，馬剋思主義立場較Halberstam鮮明。又，上百個男人在公路邊嘿咻的描述也是蠻帶感，是的，我們“perverted”，但我們不是“isolated”噢！
