The featured works focus on the radical use of alter egos and fictional characters in relation to issues of identity and subjectivity, social-political realities and the intersections of gender, ethnicity, race and religion.

Contains four new essays by Gavin Butt, Dominic Johnson, Roberta Mock and Stephen Wilson, specially written for this publication.
