The Aerial Letter

By Nicole Brossard

A groundbreaking exploration of feminist imagination and lesbian existence.

What characterizes women as a group is our colonized status. To be colonized is not to think for oneself, to think on behalf of "the other," to put one's emotions to work in service of "the other." In short, not to exist. Nicole Brossard is known internationally for her writings on writing, on feminism, and on lesbian existence. This edition released for a new wave of feminist outrage is a collection full of spirit, energy, insight, and chutzpah. She is a major voice in contemporary literature with incisive and hard-hitting essays about feminist imagination and culture.

In The Aerial Letter, Brossard delves into the heart of patriarchal reality and its tragic consequences in the lives of women. Through essays on language, identity, and desire, she challenges societal norms and inspires a new wave of feminist thought. This book is for feminist scholars, lesbian readers, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of women's colonization and the power of feminist imagination.
