Summary/Abstract: Shortly after Brokeback Mountain’s controversial 2006 Oscar race, this paper will take a look at the brilliantly-written, thought-provoking short story behind the movie. Annie Proulx challenges her readers’ expectations with a stereotype-crushing epic of few words, in which a ‘love that dares not speak its name’ gets the final say.
