'The Poor Bugger's Tool' - the title taking its name from the veiled reference to Roger Casement in Joyce's 'Ulysses' - draws on writings by Wilde, Synge, Joyce, Jamie O'Neill, and Patrick McCabe to consider how each deploys queer aesthetics to shape inclusive forms of national affiliation and put forward anti-imperialist critiques.
