Fikentscher describes how New York and Chicago’s queer disco and house scenes during the 1970s and ’80s offered young gay men opportunities to explore their sexuality beyond straight society, thus offering refuge from oppression from race, class and oppressive social forces; yet still struggling against social forces which worked against them; in his words they represented “a kind of liminal space between paradise and nonparadise”. Coupland’s works also explore themes related to hidden worlds, mystical initiation into secret gnosis that represent modern literary paths toward paradise – something Versluis referred to in his novel: literary journey towards paradise.
