For this bibliography, I have listed works about the presentation of masculinity in Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction.

Heterosexual anxiety and the idealization of 'the wife' are seen as central components of "Pulp fiction"; focuses on the near-constant scatalogical references in the film's dialogue and the fractured nature of the narrative itself as evidence of this.

Very clear and short. Perhaps reverse the order in the list below. But, a nice start.
