Zeke Epps analyzes Truman Capote's Other Voices, Other Rooms through various critical frameworks, focusing on power dynamics. Starting with Feminist theory, citing works from Kramare, Orbe, and Wood; and Queer theory, pulling from Ball and Butler, Epps identifies limitations of both, suggesting that a holistic analysis of the novel requires an intersectional framework focused on the complex, overlapping systems of privilege and discrimination created by intersections among social categories such as race, gender, class, and sexuality. Epps compares intersectional theory to specific, identity-oriented theories and argues in favor of rigorous intersectional analysis for Capote's novel and other works of gothic literature.
