An intrepid voyage out to the frontiers of the latest thinking about love, language, and family
Maggie Nelson's The Argonauts is a genre-bending memoir, a work of "autotheory" offering fresh, fierce, and timely thinking about desire, identity, and the limitations and possibilities of love and language. It binds an account of Nelson's relationship with her partner and a journey to and through a pregnancy to a rigorous exploration of sexuality, gender, and "family." An insistence on radical individual freedom and the value of caretaking becomes the rallying cry for this thoughtful, unabashed, uncompromising book.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Graywolf PressISBN-13:9781555977351ISBN-10:1555977359UPC:9781555977351Book Category:Biography & AutobiographyBook Subcategory:Personal Memoirs, Women, LGBTQ+Award:2015 National Book Critics Circle Award Finalist - Criticism AwardSize:8.10 x 5.40 x 0.50 inchesWeight:0.45Product ID:SC7XY8VG9K
