ABSTRACT

A woman enters a bookstore and browses the bookshelves. She stops, and takes up a volume of essays on Hegel and feminism, but quickly puts it back in its place. She changes places and picks up the new ‘mystery’ by a feminist author and reads the end of it. She looks at the new biography of ‘X,’ and carefully observes the cover, reads the information on the inset, looks at a page or two, and then goes to the eight pages of photographs which accompany the text and she looks them over very carefully, with care and concentration.
