Merging autobiography, criticism, feminist theory and poetry in an economy of desire, Memewars puts a poetics of rupture, displacement, obsession and exile into praxis. This text writes against a sexist, imperialist discourse of mastery and idealization. It challenges the mythologies of cohesion, autonomy and stable identity--the capitalist vision of literary originality, where ownership is of prime value. As a book that calls into question beginnings and ends, Memewars has no closure and no "back" cover; six individual texts work from two separate beginnings: they clash in the "middle"--an unstable and shifting "centre." However through a self-reflexive practice of authorization, intention is delegitimized as the centre-piece decentres, and becomes yet another beginning.
