Description
|
|
|
|
For years, Hélène Cixous—a French literature professor and the author of Portrait of Jacques Derrida as a Young Jewish Saint—has been writing down fragments of her dreams immediately after awaking. Here she collects 50 from the past 10 years, visiting dreamscapes that resist standard psychoanalytic interpretations and reflect her lyrical and deeply personal style. The dreams, reproduced in what Cixous calls both their "brute and innocent state," are infused with Cixous's humor, wit, and sense of playfulness. The "you" of the title is fellow philosopher and friend Jacques Derrida, to whom these texts are addressed.
