Özet:
“Scicluna’s richly ethnographic study of older lesbians’ experiences of kitchens […] takes the reader through the intricacies of the politics of gender relations and sexuality by focusing on a key domestic space in which they are played out, and sometimes fought out, on a daily basis.” –Sarah Green, University of Helsinki, Finland “The scrupulous attention to detail and emergent analysis reveal that the taken for granted has powerful potential for exposing hitherto hidden political, personal issues.” –Judith Okely, University of Oxford, UK “This ‘back story’ of lesbian life has been missing from studies of political and social organizing [and is] a very welcome addition to the growing literature on daily life, material culture, and aging.” –Ellen Lewin, University of Iowa, USA.
