'Ugly Differences' explores queer female sexuality's symbiotic relationship with ugliness and offers a way to see worth in ugliness as a generative category for reimagining the inhabitation of gender, sexual, and ethnic differences. Ugliness, in this work, is a multipronged concept: it equates with the disagreeable and pejorative traits that are attributed to queerness; it aligns itself with nonwhite, nonmale, and nonheterosexual physicality and experience; and it refers to anti-aesthetic textual practices, which are located in/as underground culture.

"The highly publicized obscenity trial of Radclyffe Hall's 'The Well of Loneliness' (1928) is generally recognized as the crystallizing moment in the construction of a visible modern English lesbian culture. Drawing on extensive new archival research, 'Fashioning Sapphism' locates Radclyffe Hall and other prominent lesbians within English modernity through the multiple sites of law, sexology, fashion, and literary and visual representation - thus tracing the emergence of a modern English lesbian subculture in the decade after the First World War." -- back cover.
