Ética marica : proclamas libertarias para una militancia LGTBQ by Francisco Javier Vidarte ES

0 Ratings
Country: Europe / Spain flag Spain
Description:
Esto no es un libro. Es un interruptor. Un dispositivo que corta la corriente. Y que a la vez permite que algo se ponga en marcha, que algo se encienda. Al autor le gustaría que la lectura de este libro supusiera un 'clic', un chispazo que interrumpiera una cadencia de mierda, una bajada de tensión en el movimiento LGTBQ que debe terminar cuanto antes. Y que se encendiera otra forma de hacer las cosas y de comportarnos como maricas, lesbianas y trans frente a la sociedad y las propias tendencias involucionistas. Si esto no pasa, continúa el autor, este libro no h... continue

Gaze Back : Poems by Marylyn Tan EN

Country: Asia / Singapore flag Singapore
Description:
"What do we expect of an author who is unapologetically female? What do we expect of consuming art in general? Should a work be easy, should a work be safe? Marylyn Tan's debut volume, GAZE BACK, complicates ideas of femininity, queerness, and the occult. The feminine grotesque subverts the restrictions placed upon the feminine body to be attractive and its subjection to notions of the ideal. The occultic counterpoint to organised religion, then, becomes a way toward techniques of empowering the marginalised. GAZE BACK, ultimately, is an instruction book, a grimoire, a call to insurrection-to ... continue
