Více o knize
Exploring the intersection of queer theory and Islamic anthropology, this book delves into the intimate relationships formed at a significant Sufi pilgrimage site in Pakistan. It examines how saintly affections create connections among individuals, society, and the state, transforming Islamic saints into queer companions. By focusing on the lives of fakirs, Kasmani illustrates how these bonds with a thirteenth-century mystic enable alternative ways of living, revealing a queer world shaped by the intimate ties to both saints and their historical contexts amidst state governance.
