"Over the course of the 1980s, Barbie has become an artist''s model, a collector''s ''fetish, '' and, as Erica Rand shows us, an object of collective and personal memory. "Barbie''s Queer Accessories" will help to open up important issues about queer readings in relationship to one of the most feminine coded objects of contemporary culture."--Lynn Spigel, author of "Make Room for TV: Television and the Family Ideal in Postwar America"
 
 
Praise
Times Literary Supplement
"Erica Rand's book is a study of collective reminiscence, an analysis of a supremely coded object, an eccentric and fascinating footnote to the history of loved and hated things....Rand brings us the story of customer resistance. Here are barbies naked, transgendered, trashed, dyked out." - Fiona MacCarthy 05/26/1995
