Un appartement sur Uranus

Paul B. Preciado

Paul B. Preciado collects columns published in Libération, begun under the name Beatriz and continued as Paul. They describe a transformation through testosterone outside the medical and legal protocol, then turn to other struggles.

Why it belongs here

For columns in which a personal transformation opens onto wider political questions. The subjects extend to Europe, Greece, Mexico and Catalonia, as the Grasset presentation explains.

Before choosing

The linked French edition, with a preface by Virginie Despentes, was published by Grasset on 20 March 2019 and has 336 pages. Je suis un monstre qui vous parle offers another form by the same author: a published speech rather than collected columns.
