“In this fascinating study Quinan analyzes fictions that plumb anxieties about hybridity-racial, sexual, gendered, and national-in the wake of the French-Algerian warHybrid Anxieties offers a brilliant and much-needed synthesis of queer theory, postcolonial studies, and deconstruction in a French and Algerian context.”-Kadji Amin, author of Disturbing Attachments: Genet, Modern Pederasty, and Queer History “Hybrid Anxieties maps out and unpacks an important and timely topic, timely in terms of popular and political discussion but also in terms of scholarly debates about the queer, the postcolonial, and their intersections and about the histories of post-decolonization France. Quinan writes clearly and with style and makes claims incisively and convincingly.”-Todd Shepard, author of Sex, France, and Arab Men, 1962–1979 “The novelty of Hybrid Anxieties lies in its choice of sources, none of which are completely Maghrebian; rather, they might be situated at the place of the colonial encounter itself, in a sort of in-between À la Homi K. Bhabha. Given that Bhabha’s ‘in-between’ is inextricably linked to his conceptualization of ‘hybridity,’ I think that Quinan’s inclusion of this latter concept as one of the book’s key theoretical notions offers a unique opportunity to tease out possible connection between hybridity and queerness.”-Jarrod Hayes, author of Queer Roots for the Diaspora: Ghosts in the Family Tree
