Recenzje

What linguistic anthropologist Miyako Inoue did for Japanese women's language, Maree has done for onē-kotoba and onē-kyara—the language of queerqueen personalities. While Maree draws on examples from Japanese media, the book is a must-read for anyone working on media of any sort. Maree lays bare the manipulations at play and the heteronormative norms that undergird social media today.
