Nancy and Goh explore why a deconstructive approach matters during #metoo as well as what it exposes to us about sex, our almost ineluctable relation to sex, and our relations both to ourselves and with others through sex. What are the risks, or even insensitivities, of this approach? What is the place of literary writings for such an approach? These are some of the questions the authors broach in this book, through which are made explicit too the stakes of sexistence, the reject, the force of touch or tact, and s/exscription for the topic of sex today"-- |
