A review by katnissevergreen
The Lesbian Body by Monique Wittig

5.0

"An obscurity develops the night of m/y body redoubling the other, suddenly it seems to m/e that you are the water which comes and goes in the closest confines of m/y body m/y very glorious one m/y most eternal beloved, it seems that you are that which engulfs m/e now and for ever without m/y desiring any of all you others to implore the goddesses for m/e."

I was surprised to find that I may like this novel of Wittig's more than Les Guerilleres. It has a unique and beautiful prose style, but the best part is Wittig's visceral, violent and touching recitations regarding the female body and love.
