Recenzii
“Reading masochism as a technology of world-building, Jarcho attends to the intersections of desire, negation, and race. Brilliant and seductive, this book illuminates how fantasy gets transmitted, casting the masochist as an important architect for our present moment. You’ll never be able to think of masochism or the self in the same way again.”
“From its charming opening assertion that ‘Masochism is basic’ to its final reflections on the devastations of motherhood, Throw Yourself Away is bracing, passionate, and self-critical. Jarcho imagines the scene of writing as masochistic, one that depends on the author’s will to formal closure and her desire to leave the door open to something else. Jarcho offers brilliant analyses of this fantasy in a range of texts, including her own. Throw Yourself Away is a live critical event, high-stakes and utterly compelling.”
