Graham Thompson interweaves three main threads: a historicized cultural analysis of the development of the modern business office from its beginnings in the early nineteenth century to the present day, a Foucauldian discussion of the office as the site of various disciplinary practices, and a queer-theoretical discussion of the textualization of the gay male body as a device for producing a taxonomy of male-male relations. The combination of the

    Male Sexuality under Surveillance is a lively, intelligent, and expertly argued analysis of the construction of male sexuality in the business office. Graham Thompson interweaves three main threads: a historicized cultural analysis of the development of the modern business office from its beginnings in the early nineteenth century to the present day, a Foucauldian discussion of the office as the site of various disciplinary practices, and a queer-theoretical discussion of the textualization of the gay male body as a device for producing a taxonomy of male-male relations. The combination of these themes produces a study that is fresh, insightful, and provocative. Intro -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- Part One: Managing Desire -- 1."Dead letters . . . dead men?": The Rhetoric of the Oce in Melville's "Bartleby, the Scrivener" -- 2. "And that paint is a thing that will bear looking into": The Business of Sexuality in The Rise of Silas Lapham -- 3. "A dream more romantic than scarlet pagodas by a silver sea": The Businessman and the Fairy Child in Sinclair Lewis's Babbitt -- Part Two: Postwar Unsettlement -- 4. "The spirit of work weaves a magic wand": From Babbittry to Gray Flannel via Tropical Incorporation -- 5. "Opaque glass bricks": Sloan Wilson's Gray Flannel Man in the Queer Organization -- 6.

"Frank Lloyd Oop": Microserfs, Modern Migration, and the Architecture of the 1990s -- Conclusion -- Notes -- Bibliography -- Index.
