Lauren Elkin

It is a new month and littératrice Lauren Elkin, much loved by the shop since Flaneuse (2017), is amazing us with Art Monsters: Unruly Bodies in Feminist Art, examining many of our favourite works and directing us towards new ones.

Lauren Elkin is the author of several books, including Flaneuse: Women Walk the City and No. 91/92: notes on a Parisian commute. Her essays on art, literature and culture have appeared in London Review of Books, the New York Times, Granta, Le Monde, Les Inrockuptibles, among others.
