***LONGLISTED FOR THE BOOKER PRIZE 2019*** **SHORTLISTED FOR THE COMEDY WOMEN IN PRINT PRIZE 2020** **LONGLISTED FOR THE POLARI PRIZE 2020** 'Beware, for I am fearless and therefore powerful.' Inspired by Mary Shelley's gothic classic Frankenstein, discover this audacious new novel about the bodies we live in and the bodies we desire. As Brexit grips Britain, Ry, a young transgender doctor, is falling in love. The object of their misguided affection: the celebrated AI-specialist, Professor Victor Stein. Meanwhile, Ron Lord, just divorced and living with his Mum again, is set to make his fortune with a new generation of sex dolls for lonely men everywhere. Ranging from 1816, when nineteen-year-old Mary Shelley pens her radical first novel, to a cryonics facility in present-day Arizona where the dead wait to return to life, Frankissstein shows us how much closer we are to the future than we realise.

"Genève, 1816. Dans une villa enveloppée de brouillard et trempée par une pluie sans fin, Mary Shelley est mise au défi d'écrire une histoire de fantôme. S'éveillant d'un cauchemar dans l'orage, elle est frappée d'une idée : un créateur, sa créature, Frankenstein. Dans l'Angleterre post-Brexit, Ry Shelley, jeune chirurgien trans se présentant comme un être hybride, fournit des membres humains à Victor Stein, chef de file de l'intelligence artificielle, pour un projet secret. Pendant ce temps, Ron Lord, goujat sans filtre habitant chez sa mère, crée des robots sexuels pour répondre à toutes les pulsions masculines et ainsi rendre le monde meilleur. Où se situe la frontière entre la fiction et la réalité, entre la conscience et l'idée ? Quelle est la différence fondamentale entre l'homme et la femme ? Autant de questions pour ce roman fou et brillant qui dissèque avec acuité notre époque et notre vision de l'amour."--Éditeur.

“Creativity” is a word that excites and dazzles us. It promises brilliance and achievement, a shield against conformity, a channel for innovation across the arts, sciences, technology, and education, and a mechanism for economic revival and personal success. But it has not always evoked these ideas. The Creativity Complex traces the history of how creativity has come to mean the things it now does, and explores the ethical implications of how we use this term today for both the arts and for the social world more broadly. Richly researched, the book explores how creativity has been invoked in arenas as varied as Enlightenment debates over the nature of cognition, Victorian-era intelligence research, the Cold War technology race, contemporary K-12 education, and even modern electoral politics. Ultimately, The Creativity Complex asks how our ideas about creativity are bound up with those of self-fulfillment, responsibility, and the individual, and how these might seduce us into joining a worldview and even a set of social imperatives that we might otherwise find troubling.

El 1816 Mary Shelley escriu un relat sobre la creació d'una forma de vida no biològica, sobre els límits de la raó i sobre allò que considerem humà. Anys després, a la Gran Bretanya post-Brexit, Ry Shelley, un jove transgènere, s'endinsa al món de la intel·ligència artificial i s'enamora d'en Victor Stein, un professor que lidera el debat públic al voltant de noves formes d'existència. Frankissstein ens parla dels cossos que habitem i dels que desitgem. Ens suggereix que el futur no és només a les mans de científics arrogants, sinó que també és terreny adobat per a retrògrads oportunistes. Aquesta novel·la, que qüestiona el gènere, el llenguatge, la sexualitat i els límits de la llibertat individual, és audaç, divertida, furiosa i, sobretot, clarivident. "Sí, el llibre que tots estàvem esperant. Sí, hi ha tot el que Winterson ha fet sempre tan bé. Sí, millor i molt per sobre del que us pugueu imaginar. El millor llibre de l'any." Daisy Johnson

Om kropparna vi lever i och om kropparna vi vill ha. Det är en regnig och kylig sommar 1816 vid Genève-sjön, där ett litet sällskap, bestående av Byron, Shelley och Mary Shelley samlas. De roar sig med spökhistorier och samtal om möjligheten att väcka en död människa till nytt liv. Till en mässa i Memphis tvåhundra år senare anländer Ry Shelley, läkare och transperson, för att studera robotars påverkan på människans hälsa. Han bekantar sig snabbt med den vackra receptionisten Claire och walesaren Ron Lord, som producerar avancerade sex-robotar, och träffar också den karismatiske Victor Stein. Jeanette Winterson har gjort ett lekfullt omtag på Mary Shelleys klassiska ”Frankenstein”. En bok om AI och flytande könsgränser.

The Routledge Companion to Global Literary Adaptation in the Twenty-First Century offers new perspectives on contemporary literary adaptation as a dynamically global field. Featuring contributions from an international team of established and emerging scholars, this volume considers literary adaptation to be a complex global network of influences, appropriations, and audiences across a diversity of media. It offers site-specific case studies that situate literary adaptation within global market forces while challenging the homogenizing effects of globalization on local literatures and adaptation practices. The collection also provides a multi-disciplinary and transnational discussion around a wide array of topics in literary adaptation in a global context, such as soft power, decolonization, global justice, the posthuman, eco criticism, and forms of activism. This Companion provides scholars, researchers, and students with a survey of key methodologies, current debates, and ideologies emerging from a new and exciting phase in literary adaptation.

Putting forward a new theory of fetishism - alternative fetishism - this book provides an up-to-date examination of the work of Jeanette Winterson, offering fresh perspectives and new insights on the topics of gender, sexuality, and identity in her writing. Combining contemporary theories in psychoanalytical and cultural studies, it proposes that a rethinking of fetishism allows Winterson's works to be brought into sharper critical focus by repositioning fetishism as a daily practice in society. In so doing, it argues that Winterson's work challenges orthodox, normative, and contemporary views of fetishism to reveal her own alternative version. Containing the transcript of an email Q&A with Winterson herself and covering the majority of Winterson's oeuvre, from her first novel, Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit (1985), up to the most recent, Frankissstein (2019), the book is divided into three main chapters that each discuss a particular theme in Winterson's fiction: bodily fetishism, food fetishism, and sexual fetishism. While the book's focus is on Winterson, the theoretical framework it proposes can be applied to other authors and disciplines in the Arts and Humanities, such as theatre and film, offering new ways of thinking about topics such as fetishism, feminism, psychoanalytical theory, postmodernism, gender, and sexuality.

1816 schreibt Mary Shelley Frankenstein in den Schweizer Bergen. Zweihundert Jahre später, im heutigen Großbritannien, begegnen wir dem transgender Arzt Ry Shelley, der sich in Victor Stein, einen renommierten wie unergründlichen Experten für künstliche Intelligenz verliebt. Klug und mit unvergleichlichem Witz verbindet Winterson diese beiden Erzählstränge zu einer höchst originellen Geschichte, in der die Grenzen zwischen Fiktion und Wirklichkeit, zwischen menschlicher und künstlicher Intelligenz und zwischen biologischer und sexueller Identität verschwinden – eine Geschichte über die Liebe und das Menschsein selbst.
