      Exploring the intersection of wildness and queerness, the book presents an alternative history of sexuality throughout the twentieth century. It theorizes wildness as a space of unpredictability that challenges modernity's structured norms. By engaging with diverse cultural texts and figures, from literature to revolutionary history, the author reveals how wildness enables transgressive identities and practices. This work opens new avenues for queer theory and encourages a broader understanding of wild thinking, offering fresh perspectives on identity and resistance.
