  1. Gegen die „tickende biologische Uhr“ und die Männer im Kulturbetrieb behauptet sich Yade Yasemin Önders Erzählerin im Schreibprozess
    Mit ihrem reichen Repertoire aus Rhythmik und lustvollem Sprachspiel und mit ihrem unangepassten Thema setzt sich Önder so wohltuend wie bissig ab von den formal einfallslosen und inhaltlich braven Bestsellern privilegierter Autor*innen.

  6. I recently read Tillie Olsen's 1960 novella "Tell Me a Riddle".

    An aging Jewish woman with cancer, her sense of having lost her self through years of tending to others, endless arguments between spouses, poverty, death...it all sounds so bleak, doesn't it?

    Yet such is Olsen's sensitivity to the sound of speech, the complex intertwining of resentment and attachment, memories of migration and hope, and sheer emotional honesty that I put down the book feeling revitalised.

    Don't approach the book as "just" a piece of women's literature, working class writing, or Jewish literature; it's all of those, and (not "but") from these skeins Olsen weaves a tale for us all.

  20. So sad to hear about the death of Dorothy Allison. Her writing had a big impact on my younger self, especially the collection of essays, Skin: Talking about Sex, Class and Literature

    If you'd like an entry into Allison's work, I'd probably go for the memoir, 'Two or Three Things I Know for Sure', or the short story collection, 'Trash'.

  23. > We witness the gradual marbling of her realism with radicalism. Over the years, she doesn’t seem to have changed her mind about the shabby way the world treats women, but she has progressively made her point in a gentler and more devastating manner. I did not think realism could be truly feminist until I saw Keegan wield its techniques.

  24. #AmReading Seven by Faranza Doctor. It is a compelling read of family and community relationships, and women's agency among Dawoodi Bohra, a sect of Ismaili Shia Islam. Khatna or female genital mutilation, #patriarchy, and blind #religious obeisance percolate within the complicated inter-generational relationships in this nicely written novel, wrongly IMHO described as #feministLiterature. #fiction #books #bookstodon #gender

  29. Got this book out from the library and read it with my girls tonight. It's a great book and they loved it! I had never heard of Beatrice shilling before so it was interesting for me also. I love that there are so many of these kinds of books out now especially since my eldest lives history and seeks them out. I love that she reads about all these pioneering women who are finally getting some recognition.

  34. Radfem anti-trans literature I’ve read:

    Gender Hurts: A Feminist Analysis of the Politics of Transgenderism, by Sheila Jeffreys

    The Transsexual Empire: The Making of the She-Male, by Janice Raymond

    I haven’t read Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters by Abigail Shrier just yet but it’s on my list.

    See, unlike radfems who refuse to read trans-positive literature and who refuse to read intersectional feminist books that (gasp) defend men, I am not afraid to read books by people I disagree with.

    It’s why I’m able to debate radfems so well – I’ve read their literature. They haven’t read mine, and are often completely unaware of the criticisms of the history of their own movement.

    If you would like to read some trans-positive books and intersectional feminism, check out these books:

    The Will To Change: Men, Masculinity and Love by bell hooks

    On Intersectionality: Essential Writings, by Kimberlé Crenshaw

    Stone Butch Blues, by Leslie Feinberg

    And, one book that isn’t specifically under the umbrella of intentional intersectional feminism. I include this one because it was so influential on me as a young teen when I read it:

    I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou

    If anyone has additional trans-positive or intersectional feminism books they recommend, please put them in the comments below!
