A critical look at female queerness through the lens of first-generation culture. In Tanto Tanto, a queer daughter of immigrants highlights the struggles she faces in romantic relationships amidst a culture of oppressive, culturally sanctioned heteronormativity. Exploring the consequences of queer love in both contemporary American and Luso-American societies, Tanto Tanto unsettles ideas about the privileged queer body, romantic love, queer motherhood, femininity, gender identity, sex, and more.

This collection makes visible and troubling what is often overlooked, misunderstood, and romanticized in “American” homosexuality.
