Speak / Stop by Noémi Lefebvre
4.0
Speak/Stop carefully and thoughtfully deconstructs the questions, "Should writers take about their work?" and "How do we even classify our work anyway?" Noémi Lefebvre does so by taking one of her own texts, Speak, and then performing literary criticism on it (Stop). It's so intelligent and thought-provoking and complicated that you don't realize what she's doing until a great way through the text. Lefebvre is thinking more about the production of writing and how to talk about it more and better than maybe anyone else right now. It's very French of her, and I'm obsessed with it.
