"""A seminal text that masterfully remakes our understanding of the emancipatory potential of alienated subjectivity... In vivid prose and lucid explications, McGowan incisively displays the impediments to true egalitarianism presented by any group identity and defines, instead, alienation as the driving force for liberatory practices."" — Sheldon George, Professor and Chair of Literature & Writing, Simmons University"
