This book explores how ideas of nature and the nonhuman play an important part in literary depictions of same-sex desire in twentieth-century Norwegian literature. Critically probing dichotomies such as pastoral/urban and human/animal, the chapters show how literary fiction constructs, represents, and interprets experiences of same-sex love and attraction, traditionally conceived as unnatural. Providing in-depth studies of a variety of texts, this book demonstrates the merits of bridging the gap between the de-naturalizing project of gender and queer theory on the one hand, and, on the other, the ecocritical centering of material, nonhuman environments.
