Hardback. The position of what can be known, or, what cannot be known is foundational to one of the pivotal readings of modernism. Saying that these narratives - the thinking of what constitutes truth and the rethinking of gender - are intertwined, this book suggests that where there is a crisis in knowing, there is also a crisis in gender.
