Book cover for "The Spectral Woman" by Ciara Cremin, with the subtitle "Transfemininity and the Abolition of Gender," standing next to an endorsement quote from Jodi Dean. The endorsement reads: "Recover femininity. Negate gender. Abolish androcentrism. Realize communism."

What if the feminine holds the power to undo domination itself?

A promotional graphic for The Starmer Symptom edited by Mark Perryman. The book title, The Starmer Symptom, appears in large white and red text beside a photo of Keir Starmer looking down. On the right side, a quote reads: "'A vital kickback against national decline, ranging over the aimless, joyless landscape of Britain under Grey Labour.' - Alex Niven, Editor of Tribune." The background is solid red.

Even boring people can be dangerous.

In The Starmer Symptom, edited by @MarkPerryman, major political commentators examine how Britain has changed under a Labour government.

‘The Spectral Woman: Transfemininity and the Abolition of Gender’ by Ciara Cremin reviewed by Stevphen Shukaitis To write about The Spectral Woman is to be caught in the act of haunting. Ciara Cremin’s new book, subtitled Transfemininity and the Abolition of Gender, moves with spectral grace through questions…

“Opens a horizon where abolition becomes not an end, but the beginning of something sensuous, communal and profoundly feminine.”

A book cover and quote graphic. On the left is the cover of Radical Antiquity by Christopher B. Zeichmann, featuring a classical marble bust wearing a red bandana over its face. The subtitle reads: “Free Love Zoroastrians, Farming Pirates, and Ancient Uprisings.” On the right, white text on a red background displays a quote from Alan Moore: “A compelling argument that authority may itself have always been the real aberration,” with attribution beneath. A small Pluto Press logo appears in the bottom right corner.

While your boyfriend is thinking about the Roman Empire, you're reading about the ancient anarchists who escaped it.

Social reproduction theory shows how capitalism depends on life’s renewal. In Palestine, settler colonialism wages war by obstructing that renewal at every turn.
