Vol. 1 Trans-Issue

Chickens have a collective soul. Heaven is full of the skateboarders you kissed in middle school. If the algorithm is its own hell, Lauren Cook, author of the critically (and uncritically) acclaimed Sex Goblin, stands in front of it fully armored. I Love Shopping invites its readers to inhabit a world just like ours, reflected through a big, benevolent funhouse mirror.

First published in a limited edition, this is the first trade edition of the cult classic.

Ce recueil de textes choisis et inédits en français offre une plongée dans le mouvement féministe américain du début des années 1970 et le rôle déterminant qu'y ont joué les lesbiennes. Entre 1969 et 1974, des textes majeurs du mouvement sont écrits par des collectifs comme les Lavender Menace et des autrices comme Martha Shelley, Willyce Kim, Rita Mae Brown, Judy Grahn ou Sue Katz. En problématisant le genre, la classe, la race et leurs multiples intersections, elles ont défendu des positions révolutionnaires. Cet ouvrage donne aussi à voir les formes graphiques prises par ces textes, témoignant de l'intrépidité et de la radicalité de cette jeunesse homosexuelle féministe.

The first comprehensive biography of Adrienne Rich, feminist and queer icon and internationally revered National Book Award winning poet.

Adrienne Rich was the female face of American poetry for decades. Her forceful, uncompromising writing has more than stood the test of time, and the life of the woman behind the words is equally impressive. Motivated by personal revelations, Rich transformed herself from a traditional, Radcliffe-educated lyric poet and married mother of three sons into a path-breaking lesbian-feminist author of prose as well as poetry. In doing so, she emerged as both architect and exemplar of the modern feminist movement, breaking ranks to denounce the male-dominated literary establishment and paving the way for the many queer women of letters to take their places in the cultural mainstream. Drawing on a wealth of unpublished materials, including Rich's correspondence and in-depth interviews with numerous people who knew her, Hilary Holladay digs deep into never-before-accessed sources to portray Rich in full dimension and vivid, human detail.
