Reviews

"This is without a doubt the most sustained study of Cixous and Derrida’s literary relationship. Laura Hughes pulls her reader into the process of working with their archival materials, drawing appropriately on their own reflections but also forging a strikingly original path."" - Peggy Kamuf, author of To Follow: The Wake of Jacques Derrida"
