"Wonderfully thought provoking, highly stylized, and imaginatively
written."
Kevin Pelletier, Cultural Critique
"Replete with situated, embedded figurations, Metamorphoses is a
book to grow with. Emergences, transformations, and materialist
becomings of all kinds are the subject of this rich philosophical
work. Insects, women, philosophers, cyborgs – promising monsters
all, and all are enlisted in drawing up a cartography of becoming.
Braidotti writes with enormous energy and style. Never forgetting
the subject structured in sexual difference, she searches for
figurations that can guide us to emergences more attuned to
justice, pleasure, and historical specificity. This book warms my
biophilic heart, as it informs my feminist soul and gives pleasure
to my embodied mind."
