WEBSITE. Site-Reading Writing Quarterly

Abstract Each solstice and equinox, for Site-Reading Writing Quarterly, a website I curate, I invite contributors to exchange recently completed written works and provide a situated »review« of each other’s work. These acts draw on feminist theories and critical spatial practices to open up different ways of »reading writing« differently, exploring the practice of »reviewing« from situated perspectives. The ambition is to critique and experiment with the genre of the »critical review essay«. Paying close attention to the subject matter at hand generates modes of response that create entangled and dialogic textualities - that I suggest we think of, following Donna Haraway and Rosi Braidotti, as »feminist figurations«. In this article I provide an overview of the approaches adopted by the contributors involved in the first 7 issues, interweaving presentations of the 14 books »reviewed« with theoretical reflections on the situated processes that reader-writer-reviewers have engaged with so far.
