And how might he best help his daughter navigate the relationship between machine and flesh?</p><p>Beginning with a line plucked from Donna Haraway’s “A Cyborg Manifesto” —“Their fathers, after all, are inessential”—<italic>A Cyborg’s Father</italic> blends memoiristic poetic fragments with lyric essays that look toward music and literature by women artists who have embraced the technological as a metaphorical or literal means of investigating and owning their experience as women. Traversing the intersecting paths of feminism, chronic illness, disability studies, transhumanism, interdependence, and more, this is the tale of a father whose greatest hope is to be rendered inessential.</p> 20 00 Open Access punctum books 01 punctum books Earth, Milky Way 04 01 20250404 13 15 9781685712303 09 punctum books 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.punctumbooks.com/10.53288/0525.1.00.pdf 99 01 09 punctum books 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://punctumbooks.com/titles/a-cyborgs-father-misreading-donna-haraway/ 99 01
