Reviews
'Sexual violence against boys and men in times of armed conflict has too often been ignored or relegated to a dismissive footnote. Misra's book changes everything. The effect of his vivid and forensic exploration of male-on-male sexual violence is stunning. This is a "must read" for anyone interested in rape, sexuality, violence and the vulnerable body.' -- Joanna Bourke, Professor of History at Birkbeck, University of London, and author of Rape: A History from 1860 to the Present;
'Landscapes of Silence is excellent. Lucid and theoretically rich, and drawing on evidence that spans historical, cultural and geographical space, the book is the first extended analysis of the rape of men in war. An important contribution to the literature of critical security studies, Misra's book should be essential reading for any student or practitioner of war.' * Karin Fierke, Professor of International Relations, St Andrews University, and author of Political Self Sacrifice: Agency, Body and Emotion in International Relations *
