There are few writers dedicated exclusively to cultivating the use of language; occupied with topics as transcendental as they are prosaic, with simplicity and sensitivity that move and excite even the most distracted reader. A woman within that select group is, without a doubt, Elisa Lerner. Her Gynecological Chronicles are an entrance to that hybrid world that resists the label of gender; each writing is provided – in addition to the longing for a good story – with an almost poetic cadence and the discursiveness of the essay. Lerner, who does not shy away from a gesture loaded with self-referentiality, highlights women, the feminine, the political, and everything related to the arts from a gynocritical perspective. The relationship of women with writing, cinema, song and even caricature, is interwoven with each of her writings in which Virginia Woolf, Shirley Temple, Marilyn Monroe, Eva Perón, the misses, Olivia (Popeye) among others, all mediated by a delicate reflection from facts that, with a certain irony and a remarkable narrative skill, make these chronicles a privilege of reading in the twenty-first century.
