Poe's Queer Chronotope.

This article is a review of Paul Christian Jones' book, "Poe, Queerness, and the End of Time," which examines Edgar Allan Poe's works from a queer perspective. The reviewer commends Jones for his engaging narrative and considers the book a significant contribution to Poe studies, particularly in relation to queer themes. Jones explores the concept of time in Poe's works and argues that queerness can be seen as a form of resistance to mainstream temporal logic. The reviewer also mentions the portrayal of queer characters in the Netflix series "The Fall of the House of Usher" and praises Jones for defending liberal and democratic values in a time when queer rights are being challenged.
