This book breaks the silence on systemic violence against women in French society and showcases various forms of actual and/or literary rebellion.

Blending auto-ethnography with the analysis of contemporary autofiction by French women writers and drawing portraits of other victims/rebels, Mich�le Bacholle addresses physical, symbolic, cultural, institutional, and psychological forms of gender violence across different social spheres and within an intersectional framework (i.e., age, class, immigration, race). She engages with established authors (Nina Bouraoui, Sophie Chauveau, Chlo� Delaume, Virginie Despentes, Annie Ernaux, Camille Laurens, Linda L�, L�onora Miano, Delphine de Vigan) and emerging voices in French literature (Mathieu Deslandes and Zineb Dryef, Rokhaya Diallo, Laure Gouraige, Bebe Melkor-Kadior, Samira Sedira), and bridges personal and scholarly discourse in an innovative manner. #MeToo and its repercussions, as well as current social movements provide hope for deeper societal change, short of which, following Ad�le Haenel's lead, French women may have to "stand up and split."
