These political, philosophical, and literary essays mark the first collection of theoretical writing from the acclaimed novelist and French feminist writer Monique Wittig. “Among the most provocative and compelling feminist political visions since The Second Sex. These essays represent the radical extension of de Beauvoir’s theory, its unexpected lesbian future. Wittig’s theoretical insights are both precise and far-reaching, and her theoretical style is bold, incisive, even shattering.” —Judith Butler, Johns Hopkins University

Should have paid more attention when I added this book to my reading list. I think I was expecting something more sociological but this ended being a lot about semiotics and dialectic which are two things that totally bore me. Some excerpts are interesting but I couldn’t get at all where the author wanted to go (as most of the cases when approaching dialectic).
