Night Philosophy
Fanny Howe
Published by Divided Publishing, Brussels, 2020, 96 pp., 13.9 × 21.6 cm, English
Price: €13 (Temporarily out of stock)

Night Philosophy is collected around the figure of the child, the figure of the child not just as a little person under the tutelage of adults, but also the submerged one, who knows, who is without power, who doesn’t matter. The book proposes a minor politics that disperses all concentrations of power. Howe chronicles the weak and persistent, those who never assimilate at the cost of having another group to dominate
