Ye olde ecriture feminine 🍑

So far, I have got to page 211 of my online checkout of Violette Leduc's Mad in Pursuit. It sounds like she was a very good cook, but her shenanigans with Jean Genet at dinner parties certainly were rather excessive. She needed better tools! But I suppose it was a different time...🍒

"For Cixous, écriture féminine is not only a possibility for female writers; rather, she believes it can be (and has been) employed by male authors such as James Joyce or Jean Genet."
