4.0 out of 5 stars
worth the battle, October 15, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Third Body (Hardcover)
I have never had to fight so hard to get through a book, and it was worth every word. Intense image, amazing passion, harsh honesty. It was reading poetry as prose, becoming so engulfed with an image that it could take hours to move on to the next page. It was just amazing.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Each paragraph a poem, December 2, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: The Third Body (Hardcover)
This amazing book is thick with literary allusions, verbal play and passionate response to being human, to being in love. That might make it sound dense and too difficult but Cixous' love of language and love of playing with language, clever insights and sincere voice along with her sensous responses, makes this book a rewarding experience. It will not be a book you read quickly but it is also not one you will forget quickly.
