City Country CultureBarcelona: Sex and Rebellion in Virginie Despentes' Work

14 min

Disponibile fino al 12/03/2027

Virginie Despentes left the Paris literary scene to live her queer life in free-spirited Barcelona. In Spain, the writer lives with her lover, the Barcelona philosopher Beatriz Preciado. In her 2010 novel Apocalypse Baby, she blasted heteronormativity with napalm and drew us into the insurrectionary Catalan margins and pro-sex feminist circles.
