When
we read Helene Cixous’ Laugh of the
Medusa, I felt more inspired than I had in a very long time. Since then, I
have been trying to figure out exactly what about her writing speaks to me so
deeply. In a sense, I can see why I so strongly identify with the things she
says; yet, at the same time, the more I manage to unravel, the more complex it
all seems.
