A unique feminist approach to the legacy of Jacques Derrida,
Chronicle of Separation is a disparate yet beautifully interwoven
series of distinct readings, genres, and themes, offering a
powerful reflection of love in-and as-deconstruction. Looking
especially at relationships between women, Ben-Naftali provides a
wide-ranging investigation of interpersonal relationships: the love
of a teacher, the anxiety-ridden bond between a mother and daughter
as manifested in anorexia, passion between two women, love after
separation and in mourning, the tension between one's self and the
internalized other. Traversing each of these investigations,
Chronicle of Separation takes up Derrida's Memoires for Paul de Man
and The Post Card, Lillian Hellman's famed friendship with a woman
named Julia, and adaptations of the biblical Book of Ruth. Above
all, it is a treatise on the love of theory in the name of poetry,
a passionate book on love and friendship.
