It’s been written in playful and compelling prose and stylishly presented with photos, illustrations, and discographies.‘This book has nothing against men, it’s just not about them’ (Fanny Chiarello)‘Sublimated in book form, the scale of the project feels frankly monumental – though a distinct punk aesthetic is also at play’ ‘Perhaps the feminist tactic is not merely in the listing but in truly sharing names, sharing in this infectious joy.’ The Wire, May 2024 Fanny Chiarello has previously published novels, poetry, and children’s literature in France, notably ‘A Happy Woman: One Month in New York’ with Meredith Monk. Basta Now is her first book written in English.https://www.fannychiarello.com/ The presentation will be hosted by Barbara C. Branco.
