Somewhere in the double rainbow : representations of bisexuality in post-apartheid novels
Cheryl Stobie (Author)
"Bisexuality has been explored in increasing numbers of South African novels published since the transition to democracy in 1994. In a society previously dominated by an either/or mindset, what does this development signify? The innovative Somewhere in the Double Rainbow answers this question by examining a number of these novels in depth, looking at South African literature, the nation and citizenship in a new light."--BOOK JACKET
