'Intriguing' – The Sunday Times'A rousing read' – The Irish TimesRenowned journalist Mona Chollet recasts the witch as a powerful role model: an emblem of strength, free to exist beyond the narrow limits society imposes on women.Taking three archetypes from historic witch hunts – independent women, women who avoid having children and women who embrace ageing – Chollet examines how women today have the same charges levelled against them. She calls for justice in healthcare, challenging the gender imbalance in science and questioning why female bodies are still controlled by men.Rich with popular culture, literary references and media insights, In Defence of Witches is a vital addition to the cultural conversation around women, witches and the misogyny that has shaped the world they live in.With a foreword by Carmen Maria Machado and translated from French by Sophie R. Lewis.'Thought-provoking . . . a bright light of Francophone feminism' – The New York Times

As feminist principles have taken wider hold in society, and basic ideas about equality for women can seem a given, many women still struggle in one of the most important areas of life: love. Whether it’s finding a partner, seeking a commitment from one, or struggling in a relationship that is unfulfilling or even potentially abusive, women still find that deeply-engrained notions of gender and behavior can be obstacles to a healthy, loving relationship. In her new book, acclaimed French feminist Mona Chollet tackles some of these long-held and pervasive ideas that remain stumbling blocks for many women in heterosexual relationships.Drawing from popular culture, politics, and literature, Reinventing Love provides a provocative, accessible look at how heterosexual relationships can improve and evolve under a feminist lens.

En una epoca en la que politicos, empresarios y medios de comunicacion apelan a la realidad como argumento indiscutible, Mona Chollet lanza una critica incisiva contra el imperativo de aceptar el mundo tal como es. Con agudeza y sensibilidad, se sumerge en los entresijos de una idea que, aunque venerada, ha moldeado nuestras vidas con rigidez: la realidad como dogma. Frente a esta imposicion, la autora reivindica el derecho a imaginar: nos invita a pensar de otro modo, a disentir y a reconstruir los vinculos con nuestro entorno. Entre ensayos, novelas, teorias cientificas y experiencias cotidianas; a traves de pensadores, escritores, cientificos y artistas de Flaubert a Baudrillard, de la fisica cuantica al romanticismo, Chollet traza un mapa lucido y provocador de alternativas posibles. Abarca tanto el mundo laboral como el domestico, desde el circo mediatico hasta el peso individual y colectivo del deber ser, y propone rutas alternativas hacia una vida mas plena: la defensa del descanso, la soledad elegida, la riqueza del mundo interior, el potencial de la fantasia, el sueno como impulso vital y la imaginacion como forma de resistencia. Lejos de un discurso derrotista, La tirania de la realidad traza un camino posible hacia una existencia mas serena, justa y conectada con lo esencial. Este es un llamado a desprogramarnos, a desafiar lo que se nos presenta como inevitable y a abrir la puerta a una existencia mas libre, mas digna; a dejar de obedecer lo evidente y recuperar el derecho de sonar con un mundo distinto... porque, tal vez, la realidad no sea lo unico que tenemos.

Itsenäinen, naimaton, lapseton, osaava, omapäinen, luova, vahva, vanheneva... Nainen -- vai noita? Satujen noidat vetävät puoleensa, ja naiseuden maagiset voimat kiehtovat. Moni nykynainen on kääntänyt ajatuksen sisäisestä noidasta voimavaraksi. Se ei kuitenkaan ole aina ollut sitä. Noitavainot saavuttivat lakipisteensä renessanssin aikaan samalla, kun länsimainen kulttuuri nousi uuteen kukoistukseen. Miksi osaava tai itsenäinen nainen oli juuri silloin niin suuri uhka? Ja kenelle? Miksi naisvainot yhä jatkuvat? Ranskalainen Mona Chollet kertoo naisvainojen tarinan omakohtaisesti ja elävästi. Hän on tunnistanut kolme naistyyppiä, jotka ovat kautta aikojen joutuneet yhteisöjen silmätikuiksi. Nuo "noidat" ovat joko sinkkuja -- siis itsenäisiä, naimattomia tai lapsettomia – naisia, tai ikääntyviä tai poikkeuksellisen osaavia naisia. Siis kovin tunnistettavia hahmoja ajassamme.
