Lesbian Triptych by Jovette Marchessault

Lesbian Triptych

Jovette Marchessault

This is an anthology of three stories – ‘Night Cows’, ‘A Lesbian Chronicle from Medieval Quebec’ and ‘The Angel Makers’ – evoking the best of the new wave of feminist writing in Quebec. Sensuous and fabulous language turns conventional images of women inside out; Marchessault challenges us to remake our patterns of language in a way that explodes the stereotypes of the past and ecstatically explores the contours of a feminist vision for the future. Anglophone readers will find a new magic, new revelations, a new name of women’s experience in the work of this Quebecoise word-spinner.
