/lit/ - Literature

I don't read much fiction other than the classics and some modern short stories, so my exposure to female authors is mostly via academia.

The Second Sex by Simone de Beauvoir, and Eichmann in Jerusalem by Hannah Arendt are great examples of great works in modern philosophy.

Also Fast Machine by Elizabeth Ellen is a pretty great collection of short stories.

Zizek is probably going to go down as the greatest leftist thinker of our time for better or worse. I see this only because Chomsky is going to kick the bucket soon and Zizek will outlive him enough to set the road for future left philosophers. All leftists will be left with is postmodernism, but at-least Zizek's system rejects a majority of the "hug-box" bullshit that has been popular lately.
