Abstract
which Luna characterizes as a queer departure, “because [missionaries] imagined futures of living with and loving sex workers instead of future husbands” (151). Nonetheless, Luna does not portray the relationship between missionaries and sex workers as a queer utopia. In fact, both parties were concerned they were being used by the other. Although they described their mission as being rooted in unconditional love, missionaries hoped that their actions ultimately would lead to sex workers loving God and leaving prostitution. It is these tensions that Luna so beautifully illustrates and analyzes, leaving readers with new visions for love, friendship, and kinship at the border.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
