Rachel Loewen Walker’s original study of Deleuze’s theory of temporality critically expands our understanding of non-linear time through engagement with queer theory and new feminist materialisms. Walker draws on the notion of non-linear time in Deleuze’s work to advance a conception of ’the living present’ as a critical juncture through which new meanings and activism in the fields of feminism, environment, and queerness may be realised.Using literary texts by Jeanette Winterson and philosophical texts by Julia Kristeva and Luce Irigaray, Walker reflects on monomythic stories about gender, sexuality, and identity in the context of rapid climate change, and posthumanist politics to tread new ground for Deleuzian studies of time. Speaking to and from feminist, queer, environmental, trans, and crip political movements, Walker progresses a critical re-evaluation of time. Through a wide-ranging analysis, we are able to see how everyone is within rather than outside of time, opening up the possibility for imagining and realising alternate futures for the environment and ourselves.

The dominant narratives of African womanhood, legitimized by intellectual discourse, are neither written by African women nor Africans in general. This book s...
