She is also abandoned by her lover, to whom she is in thrall. She tries repeatedly to make or receive phone calls with the beloved figures, without success.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShe waits for their letters and imagines their contents. In a dream-like, torrid sequence, suffering, fear, fatigue and imperfection are apostrophised. Forgetting is examined and toyed with from every angle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMythical hybrid creatures are invoked: a snake-headed lion, wolf-snakes, a wolf-peacock. How did this come to be? In a cunningly, wittily wrought rush, the unique, unpredictable voice of the narrator speaks from multiple perspectives to express powerful anguish and, ultimately, catharsis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSilver Press, 2026 \u003cbr\u003eSoftcover, 172pp \u003cbr\u003e198 x 128mm \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tenderbooks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56992368001401,"sku":null,"price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0488\/8029\/files\/Tenderbooks_dd912593-45cd-4d36-84db-bf2fa22b5dc4.jpg?v=1775649354","url":"https:\/\/tenderbooks.pro\/products\/angst-helene-cixous","provider":"Tenderbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
