520    Whistling in the Dark: Twenty-one Queer Interviews focuses
       on issues like sexuality, sexual identity, marriage, gay 
       marriage, heteronormativity, gay utopia, gay activism, gay
       bashing, police atrocities and the laws vis-à-vis these. 
       The interviewees represent a cross section of society 
       ranging from university professors, gay rights activists 
       and students, on the one hand, to working class men such 
       as office boys, auto-rickshaw drivers and even undertrials
       who have served prison sentences, on the other. The 
       thought-provoking narratives in this book are the outcome 
       of probing and incisive questions put to the respondents 
       by the editors R. Raj Rao and Dibyajyoti Sarma. Appealing 
       to a wide readership, the narratives go beyond the 
       conventional and provide a rare insight into the private 
       lives of the respondents. Besides being a must read for 
       gay activists and organisations, the book will also be a 
       useful resource for post-graduate students and academics 
       working in the fields of sexuality studies, feminism and 
       alternative literature.
