商品簡介
With book sales at 25 million and counting and the popularity of the current television show, there is no question that it has wide appeal, but why is Outlander so popular? Twelve contributors respond from a variety of viewpoints. Outsider eludes a definitive genre (although Gabaldon calls it general fiction). It touches on, if not ticks, many genres’ boxes, such as romance, science fiction, fantasy, historical fiction. Contributors discuss fandom, Highlands tourism, romance, time travel, ghosts, gender, violence, and sex, and the practice of gay male homoerotic reading, among other topics.
