In a later book, Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick sums up her basic argument in Between Men:

[Between Men] attempted to demonstrate the immanence of men’s same-sex bonds, and their prohibitive structuration, to male-female bonds in nineteenth-century English literature…[The book] focused on the oppressive effects on women and men of a cultural system in which male-male desire became widely intelligible primarily by being routed through nonexistent desire involving a woman (Epistemology 15).
