A bit like if "Love Affairs of Nathaniel P" had been written in the era of the incel counter-revolution, and by a man, who worked with post-war experimental forms, hallucination, and social theory, and had as his target not self-satisfied left-liberal assholes (a worthy target, I accept), but the horrors of the DDR and the world in general. As with all of Cole's translations of Hilbig, this is fantastic, though certainly not the place to start. You'll need to build up some love for the author, and the implied author, and have some accumulated sympathy for the narrator himself, to get through this one in good faith.

Already acclaimed for providing unique insight into some of history's greatest wrongs--and today's issues of mass surveillance, neofascism, and the individual's role in society--what does Wolfgang Hilbig have to add to contemporary questions about gender? A lot, it turns out. Acclaimed as one of Hilbig's major works, The Females finds the lauded and legendarily irascible author focusing his labyrinthine, mercurial mind on how unequal societies can pervert sexuality and destroy a healthy, productive understanding of gender. It begins with a factory laborer who ogles women in secret on the job. When those same women mysteriously vanish from their small town, the worker sets out on a uniquely Hilbiggian, hallucinatory journey to find them. Powerful and at times disturbing, The Females leaves us with some of the most challenging, radical, and enduring insights of any novel from the GDR. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
