#MaggieNelson (1973) is an American writer. She is generally described as a genre-busting writer defying classification, working in autobiography, art criticism, theory and poetry. • “But whatever sameness I’ve noted in my relationships with women is not the sameness of Woman, and certainly not the sameness of parts. Rather, it is the shared, crushing understanding of what it means to live in a patriarchy” • “Whenever you get involved with talking about rights, you're talking about being a citizen. You're talking about being a citizen in capitalism; you're talking about what rights are granted to what identities, under what laws, and all that is a big mix. Marriage is, among many other things, a formality to channel capital through a family" • “It is easier, of course, to find dignity in one’s solitude. Loneliness is solitude with a problem” • 📷: Graeme Mitchell. #queerliterature #poetry #theargonauts #bluets #GraemeMitchell #wmnzinetakeover ✂️wmn_zine takeover✂️
