      abstract = {"Children are thoroughly, shockingly queer, as Kathryn  Bond Stockton explains in The Queer Child, where she  examines childrenrs"s strangeness, even some childrenrs"s  subliminal "gayness," in the twentieth century. Estranging,  broadening, darkening forms of children emerge as this book  illuminates the child queered by innocence, the child  queered by color, the child queered by Freud, the child  queered by money, and the grown homosexual metaphorically  seen as a child (or as an animal), alongside the gay child.  What might the notion of a "gay" child do to conceptions of  the child? How might it outline the pain, closets,  emotional labors, sexual motives, and sideways movements  that attendallchildren, however we deny it?},
