Next up! A fictional account of the radical feminist and cultural icon Valerie Solanas. (Never heard of her but am intrigued! Apparently she had a beef with Andy Warhol.)
Also fits for #womenintranslation month.

"In April 1988, Valerie Solanas was discovered dead in her hotel room, in San Francisco, alone, penniless, and surrounded by the typed pages of her last writings. Through imagined conversations and monologues, reminiscences and rantings, Stridsberg reconstructs this most enigmatic of women, articulating the thoughts that she struggled to express in life and giving a powerful voice to the writer of the infamous SCUM Manifesto."
