Publisher's Synopsis

First published in French in 1982, this novel of lesbian love among four women takes place between CuraÇao and Montreal; New York and Paris. The title, taken from Wittgenstein, is a reference to the hologram as a new pictorial model for woman. Like the hologram which is intended to be read from an infinite number of changing conditions, Brossard's work abstracts the image of the feminine so that it can be read from all angles.
