Description
Cancelled Confessions is a surrealist masterpiece that reveals Claude Cahun as a pioneering queer theorist almost a century ahead of her time. First published in 1930, this book has now been translated into English for the first time in twenty years, offering a new opportunity to experience Cahun's unique vision.
The book's nine sections are prefaced by dreamlike photomontages, which reflect and converse with the verbal content. This unique blend of visual and textual elements provides a fascinating insight into Cahun's artistic and intellectual world. A new introduction by art historian Amelia Groom contextualizes the book within contemporary queer discourse, highlighting its enduring relevance and significance.
Published in 2024, this edition of Cancelled Confessions is a significant event in the world of literary studies, offering a new translation of a work that has long been out of print. With its unique blend of art and theory, this book is sure to appeal to anyone interested in surrealist literature, queer theory, or the intersection of art and politics.
