* original 'thing-pieces' by Calle-Gruber.
Reviews / Votes
'I think you have to give Cixous' prose plenty of time; then it detonates in your brain ... Well worth buying.' - Michele Roberts, The Independent'A comprehensive introduction to Helene Cixous in all her diverse aspects.' - The Fawcett Library Newsletter
'She gives you a shattering sense of how, under conventional language, there rages something else altogether, which we too could discover if we cherish doubt and uncertainty.' - Michele Roberts, The Independent
'Well worth buying.' - Michele Roberts, The Independent
'Only a small number of books fall into the category of an introductory text which is sufficiently intelligent and lucid to be essential reading for a more informed audience. Rootprints belongs to that even more select group of texts: the essential introduction written by the primary source.' - New Formations
'It is brilliant; it is art...' - Michael Kerrigan, The Scotsman
'Rootprints is a must for those already educated in feminism and is also a challenging introduction to Cixous'' world for the reader who comes to Cixous the first time through this book' - Edina Szalay, HJEAS
