After Sex
Edna Bonhomme; Alice Spawls
London: Silver Press, 2023.“The last decade has seen a rise in activism and arguments over women’s reproductive freedom reminiscent of the 1960s and 1970s. This title provides personal and political perspectives from the mid-twentieth century to the present day, setting feminist classics alongside contemporary accounts and highlighting the experiences of women of colour and working-class women. Contributors include Nell Dunn, Anne Enright, bell hooks, Ursula K. Le Guin, Audre Lorde and Sally Rooney. These essays, short stories and poems trace past understandings of reproductive freedom and consider what it might look like in future, making urgent connections between womens equality and access to contraception, healthcare and childcare. The writers pay special attention to people — both fictional and real — who have sought control over their sexual lives, and the joy, comedy, difficulties and disappointments that entails. But above all, After Sex testifies to the power of great writing to show us why that freedom is worth pursuing — without shame and without apology.” (publisher’s blurb)

Ah! Nana (Complete Set, 9 Issues)
Janic Guillerez; Marjorie Alessandrini; Anne Delobel; et al.
Paris: Les Humanoides Associes, 1976-1978.Complete set of the French women’s comic magazine Ah ! Nana which evolved out of and was published by the comic book publishing house of Moebius (Jean Giraud), Jean-Pierre Dionnet, Philippe Druillet, and Bernard Farkas, Les Humanoides Associes. During a staff lunch of their magazine Metal Hurlant (the original of the English adaptation Heavy Metal), Jean-Pierre suggested to the women present (including his wife Janic Guillerez who became chief editor of Ah! Nana) to create a women’s magazine and feminist newspaper. Ah!Nana ran for nine issues, each with its own theme, coming to a short end following the magazine being banned to minors after the publication of the eighth issue devoted to homosexuality. This led the editorial team to go all in on the ninth and final issue, devoting it to incest, leading to the French censorship Commission banning the publication, labelling it pornographic.
