Viewing masculinity and selfrepresentation through a queer feminist lens which seeks not to impose typologies or make claims as to universal Latino Caribbean masculinities, he analyzes texts by Cuban Severo Sarduy, Dominican American Junot Díaz, and Puerto Ricans Luis Rafael Sánchez and Edgardo Rodríguez Juliá in order to understand the relationship between authorship, masculinity, and colonial violence that is present in many Latino Caribbean narratives
