Reviews

'Out Online is a compelling, original and generous book. Raun's scholarship is rigorous and innovative, combining an attentive, in-depth, and insightful analysis of trans vlogs with an important intervention into studies of visual culture, digital media and sexuality and gender. This is essential reading for anyone interested in contemporary identities and the politics of participatory culture.' Kate O'Riordan, University of Sussex, UK
