Rhetoric PhD candidate p. feijó has published a second book in in Portuguese, Episódios de Fantasia & Violência.
From the publisher, Orfeu Negro:
Episódios de Fantasia & Violência (Episodes of Fantasy & Violence) (Orfeu Negro, 2024), a self-theoretical essay in poetic prose, debuted as a reading-performance in various intimate venues between Lisbon and Porto, and now takes on a new form as p. feijó's second book.
p. feijó speaks to us about a world that is violent toward what is non-binary or, in general, does not fit into the dominant male experience. By recalling certain episodes, she attempts to understand the role and nature of violent, obscene, and wrong pornographic fantasy, paying close attention to the body in metamorphosis that incites fantasy and transformation in other bodies. This contagious process of voluntary and involuntary somatic experimentation is also a monstrosity that heralds the end of this world.
Her first book, Bichxs of Shit: Aristotle, Females and Other De-generative Monsters (maio maio, 2023) is an inquiry into the cispatriarchal roots of Aristotle's natural philosophy on the generation of animals, and into the relation it establishes between women and monstrosity.
Congratulations, p.!
