Rezensionen
"Maggie Nelson zeigt, dass es möglich ist, Philosophie und radikale Kritik als romantische Orgie auf den Trümmern alter Gewohnheiten zu feiern - um am Ende zu ahnen, was es heißt, frei zu sein." Margarete Stokowski

"Mit wilder Intelligenz, die letztlich der Liebe verpflichtet ist, schneidet Maggie Nelson durch die vorgefertigten Gedanken- und Gefühlsstrukturen unserer Zeit." Ben Lerner
