An intrepid voyage out to the frontiers of the latest thinking about love, language, and family

Maggie Nelson's The Argonauts is a genre-bending memoir, a work of "autotheory" offering fresh, fierce, and timely thinking about desire, identity, and the limitations and possibilities of love and language. It binds an account of Nelson's relationship with her partner and a journey to and through a pregnancy to a rigorous exploration of sexuality, gender, and "family." An insistence on radical individual freedom and the value of caretaking becomes the rallying cry for this thoughtful, unabashed, uncompromising book.

Easy to follow instructions

This is a sturdy, easy to follow instruction book that really lays flat, even when you fold the pages completely over.
I wish there were a little more margin between the spine and the words, but it is readable so that is a small thing.

It took this company three times to get me the items that I ordered. The first two orders I placed never arrived. However, this one did and I am happy with my Genkouyoushi notebooks. Third time is the charm. Thank you.
