THE ARGONAUTS
“This book is a life-changer.”
—Carrie Brownstein, The New York Times
**Only for sale in the UK and its territories.**
A timely and genre-bending memoir that offers fresh and fierce reflections on motherhood, desire, identity and feminism.
At the centre of The Argonauts is the love story between Maggie Nelson and the artist Harry Dodge, who is fluidly gendered. As Nelson undergoes the transformations of pregnancy, she explores the challenges and complexities of mothering and queer family making.
Writing in the tradition of public intellectuals like Susan Sontag, Nelson uses arresting prose even as she questions the limits of language.
The Argonauts is an intrepid voyage out to the frontiers of love, language, and family.
MAGGIE NELSON is a poet, critic, and nonfiction writer. Her books include The Art of Cruelty: A Reckoning, Bluets, and Jane: A Murder.
She teaches in the School of Critical Studies at CalArts and lives in Los Angeles, California.
