Summary/Abstract: The essay attempts at discovering aspects that mirror elements of French feminism in Jeanette Winterson’s Written on the Body. Following Winterson’s puns and puzzling perspective as well as her subtle and at the same time strong manner of expressing personal truth, one goes beyond oppositions reaching an intense, even if short, moment of ontological harmony.
