Feeling Backward weighs the costs of the contemporary move to the mainstream in lesbian and gay culture. While the widening tolerance for same-sex marriage and for gay-themed media brings clear benefits, gay assimilation entails other losses--losses that have been hard to identify or mourn, since many aspects of historical gay culture are so closely associated with the pain and shame of the closet.
Feeling Backward makes an effort to value aspects of historical gay experience that now threaten to disappear, branded as embarrassing evidence of the bad old days before Stonewall. It looks at early-twentieth-century queer novels often dismissed as "too depressing" and asks how we might value and reclaim the dark feelings that they represent. Heather Love argues that instead of moving on, we need to look backward and consider how this history continues to affect us in the present.
Through elegant readings of Walter Pater, Willa Cather, Radclyffe Hall, and Sylvia Townsend Warner, and through stimulating engagement with a range of critical sources, Feeling Backward argues for a form of politics attentive to social exclusion and its effects.

“”As long as homophobia continues to centrally structure queer life, We cannot afford to turn away from the past; instead, we have to risk the turn backward, even if it means opening ourselves to social and psychic realities we would rather forget.”
评分只看了序，超對味的neagativity。
评分可能是年度最佳了。语言简练，感情沉郁，文风浪漫；导论、后序很对味。Love试图建立一种酷儿政治主体marked by backwardness。她关注的问题是，高歌猛进的gay pride承诺了一个玫瑰色光明未来，但实际上LGBT群体的历史始终与羞耻、丧失、孤独等各色负面情绪相纠缠，而这些情绪依然充斥多数成员的日常生活——倘若不能与它们妥善周旋，那个所许诺的未来就必将虚幻且狭隘。虽然她表示不是很关注action，后序还是提到，新的酷儿政治主体，既是在回击垄断话语的主流阳光gay，也是在敦促无所作为的酷儿理论家。
评分Love看上去是anti-social turn，却比任何人都积极，take up the burdens and move forward
评分"the idea of modernity- with its suggestions of progress, rationality, and technological advance- is intimately bound up with backwardness."
