Lynne Huffer's ambitious inquiry redresses the rift between feminist and queer theory, traversing the space of a new, post-moral sexual ethics that includes pleasure, desire, connection, and betrayal. She begins by balancing queer theorists' politics of sexual freedoms with a moralizing feminist politics that views sexuality as harm. Drawing on the best insights from both traditions, she builds an ethics centered on eros, following Michel Foucault's ethics as a practice of freedom and Luce Irigaray's lyrical articulation of an ethics of sexual difference. Through this theoretical lens, Huffer examines everyday experiences of ethical connection and failure connected to sex, including queer sexual practices, sodomy laws, interracial love, pornography, and work-life balance. Her approach complicates sexual identities while challenging the epistemological foundations of subjectivity. She rethinks ethics "beyond good and evil" without underestimating, as some queer theorists have done, the persistence of what Foucault calls the "catastrophe" of morality. Elaborating a thinking-feeling ethics of the other, Huffer encourages contemporary intellectuals to reshape sexual morality from within, defining an ethical space that is both poetically suggestive and politically relevant, both conceptually daring and grounded in common sexual experience.

Download At the Grave's Mouth Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Fran's deepest concerns are thoroughly existential, altogether more serious than those of the mere literary formalist. Her work is grounded in an unstinting search for meaning, a relentless effort to find speech in the presence of life's silencing mysteries. At the Grave's Mouth, the early poems of Fran Montane, is an experience in consciousness D an idiolect at once speculative and visceral, tragic and satirical, dark and picaresque. As poet and lesbian, having worked with a silent, almost secret passion on her verse she offers a unique vision of the Kali Yuga D the dark age in Indian philosophy in which we are living which leads to the new cycle of the Satya Yuga D the age of truth, a position she pursues in her later works. I think you'll find this work exceptional from both an artistic standpoint and in the context of the times in which we live. She very well may be the Arthur Rimbaud and Jim Morrison of the new Millenium. Tom Ross, Performance and Visual Artist, Director

Second Grave on the Left is the second installment in Darynda Jones' award-winning paranormal series that's "hilarious and heartfelt, sexy and surprising." (J.R. Ward) When Charley Davidson and Cookie (her best friend/receptionist) have to track down a missing woman, the case isn’t as open and shut as they anticipate. A friend of Cookie's named Mimi disappeared five days earlier. The case turns cryptic as the only clue to Mimi's disappearance is a woman's name scrawled on the bathroom wall of a coffee shop. Meanwhile, Reyes Alexander Farrow (otherwise known as the Son of Satan. Yes. Literally) has left his corporeal body and is haunting Charley. He's left his body because he's being tortured by demons who want to lure Charley closer. But Reyes can't let that happen. Because if the demons get to Charley, they'll have a portal to heaven. And if they have a portal to heaven...well, let's just say it wouldn't be pretty. Will Charley make it out unscathed, or will the forces of darkness overshadow her? Will the strength of Charley's steaming cup of determination be enough to tide her over the menacing storm?

Download Foucault's Strange Eros Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
What is the strange eros that haunts Foucault’s writing? In this deeply original consideration of Foucault’s erotic ethics, Lynne Huffer provocatively rewrites Foucault as a Sapphic poet. She uncovers eros as a mode of thought that erodes the interiority of the thinking subject. Focusing on the ethical implications of this mode of thought, Huffer shows how Foucault’s poetic archival method offers a way to counter the disciplining of speech. At the heart of this method is a conception of the archive as Sapphic: the past’s remains are, like Sappho’s verses, hole-ridden, scattered, and dissolved by time. Listening for eros across fragmented texts, Huffer stages a series of encounters within an archive of literary and theoretical readings: the eroticization of violence in works by Freud and Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick, the historicity of madness in the Foucault-Derrida debate, the afterlives of Foucault’s antiprison activism, and Monique Wittig’s Sapphic materialism. Through these encounters, Foucault’s Strange Eros conceives of ethics as experiments in living that work poetically to make the present strange. Crafting fragments that dissolve into Sapphic brackets, Huffer performs the ethics she describes in her own practice of experimental writing. Foucault’s Strange Eros hints at the self-hollowing speech of an eros that opens a space for the strange.
