Sphinx  Cover Image Book Book

Sphinx / Anne Garréta ; translated from the French by Emma Ramadan ; introduction by Daniel Levin Becker.

Garréta, Anne, (author.). Ramadan, Emma, (translator.). Levin Becker, Daniel, (writer of introduction.).

Summary:

A landmark literary event: the first novel by a female member of the Oulipo in English, a sexy genderless love story. A beautiful and complex love story between two characters, the narrator, "I," and their lover, A***, written without using any gender markers to refer to the main characters, Sphinx is a remarkable linguistic feat and paragon of experimental literature that has never been accomplished before or since in the strictly-gendered French language.
