- Annotation
- Examines the neurological and psychological aftereffects of Jake s wound, concentrating on the phenomenon of phantom limb sensation on his conflicted sexuality. Anesko argues that Jake s phantom member can experience stimulation, thus leaving him in a bisexual limbo, unable to satisfy Brett but more accepting of a relaxed masculinity that opens a range of new kinds of masculine intimacy.
