商品簡介
Akin to a bookkeepers accounting of whats given and taken in a fraught, uncertain exchange, The Counting House goes on to record the pageantry and pedantry of courtly affection gone awry. Symbols and origins of traditional rhymes involving kings and queens serve as inventory, alongside elements of Michel Foucaults Discipline and Punish and Simone de Beauvoirs The Second Sex. In forensic sequences of inquisition, scrutiny, and reckoning, Ridley reveals the maiden as muse as modern darling unhoused and exacting in all of her violet forms.
