Takarazuka, Yaoi, Ai no Yomikae

The dreams of Takarazuka fans, the delusions of the fujoshi... Why are people fascinated by stories of friendship and romance between these vessel men, and what is the nature of the love that is reinterpreted there? Using Nicholas Luhmann, Anthony Giddens, and Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick as keys, this book unravels queer women's disobedient imagination/creativity and the pleasure that bonds between fictional men bring to a couple of two women.
