- Double-weighted statement
- This book merits double-weighting as it constitutes a major contribution to the study of one of the most critically-esteemed contemporary writers in French. It proposes the first sustained analysis of the specifically fictional dimension of Cixous?s highly poetic work. While most previous critical attention had focussed on the philosophical and political implications of her writing, Cixous?s Semi-Fictions studies the implications of the attraction of fiction for the writer.
