Un recueil de textes tous très intéressants, pas forcément à ma portée car ce sont des textes rédigés à la façon des écrits universitaires, ce qui rend la lecture lente car il est intéressant de s'attarder sur les passages qu'on a moins bien compris. Une introspective complète sur le lesbianisme et une nouvelle vision du féminisme.

If I had understood what Wittig was writing about, I’m sure this rating would be higher. I’ve read another work by her and enjoyed it, so I guess I was expecting something else. This is basically a deep discussion on gender in language. The first section was interesting and I was able to hang on, but as it progressed, the subject matter went over my head :/
