Recenzii
Winner: Association for Theatre in Higher Education (ATHE) 2021 Outstanding Book Award
"[Khubchandani] is not a professional voyeur, peeking in with a heteronormative gaze just because queerness now seems cool and marketable. The knowledge he generates is possible only because of his unique vantage point as a performance studies scholar, a drag queen, and a transnational desi. ...He speaks of the gay men he meets from a place of “critical generosity.” They are not merely subjects to be studied. Many of them are friends, acquaintances, community members, and love interests. There is a relationship of care."

—Hindustan Times
"The outstanding feature of Ishtyle: Accenting Gay Indian Nightlife is that it makes the subject of gay Indian nightlife in two interconnected geographical locations fully visible through an astute, engaging, theoretically sophisticated commentary and analysis... ...Khubchandani offers analyses and perspectives that are incisively original contributions to transnational performance studies and the field of Indian diasporic performance."

"In each instance, the clarity of Khubchandani’s writing is notable. His ethnography skillfully laces vignettes and history, both personal and national, with a nuanced study of how gay nightlife reorients one’s performance towards a gayness that is de rigueur and a counterculture that hopes to undo it."
—Journal of Postcolonial Writing
—Journal of Postcolonial Writing
"The sensorial richness of the book—its expert attention to the sonic, haptic, and affective textures of gay Indian nightlife— re-creates the feeling of the nightclub’s promises of fun, pleasure, and sex. Khubchandani’s evocative writing is a study in sensory ethnography, inviting readers to share in the sights, sounds, tastes, and smells of gay Indian nightlife."
—Transgender Studies Quarterly
—Transgender Studies Quarterly
"[Khubchandani]'s is a refreshing study written with verve and rigor that should be widely read and embraced in Asian American and queer of color studies."
—Journal of Asian American Studies
—Journal of Asian American Studies
"Ishtyle reveals what has always been possible in queer nightlife: that the learned repertoires of pleasure can never be fully erased by catastrophic material conditions. They wait in abeyance until they can slip through hidden spaces and burst into fleeting spotlights, like they have always done. Reading this book brings us home to those dancefloors we may not have ever stepped onto, but of which we have always and already dreamed."

"Kareem Khubchandani’s new book, Ishtyle: Accenting Gay Indian Nightlife, is definitely one of a kind. It isn’t every day a book begins with a Spotify playlist with a song dedicated to you! In considered, elegant and playful voice, Khubchandani’s ethnography takes the readers on a journey across Chicago and Bangalore, where we encounter desi drag queens, queer activists, party revellers and socialite divas."
—Asian Studies Review
—Asian Studies Review
"Ishtyle is an incredibly rich ethnography that explores different registers of visibility (abject/acceptable/desired), bodies, gender performativity, and the way non-normative sexuality is explored and experienced. ...While it may seem that nightlife as an ethnographic setting may be the most attractive field-site to consider, Khubchandani’s study makes clear what a productive space it offers to consider a whole array of questions ranging from gender and sexuality to race, ethnicity and the experience of migration/diasporic longing and belonging."

Honorable Mention: GLQ Caucus of the Modern Language Association (MLA) and Queer/Trans Caucus of American Studies Association (ASA) 2021 Alan Bray Book Prize
"...from its impeccable, lush writing to its self-reflexive interrogation of what it means to become a desi drag queen or organize a queer Indian nightlife party where there was none, Ishtyle: Accenting Gay Indian Nightlife is an act of love."
