I’ve always assumed beg gay required a fleeter foot along a trickier path than the one the heterosexuals walk, but how do the straights summon the energy to have so many relatnships that are so fundamentally unsatisfyg? Every turn of the narrative seemed to reflect upon the story’s unspoken gay tragedy.

Whout a helpful homosexual gui like Audre Lor around to rm the two schemers that the master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s hoe, their plans to pe the patriarchal hold of their hometown are as elaborate as they are futile. Elena toils through years of schoolg, Lila plots an elaborate shoe empire, and no one tells them that the fastt way to get permanently exiled om a backwards village is to jt go ahead and do somethg gay.

Queer here rists the regim of ntrol on iendships, feelgs and mere nnectivy where Lila and Lenù don’t subject their herent sir to heterosexualy or homosexualy rather keep their iendship timate but whout any mty bari by nstctg a unter normative relatnship.
