“(…) a wild thing caught in a woman’s skin, monstrously alone,”

“That surgery is sex, isn’t it? You know it is. Surgery is the new sex.” KRISTEN STEWART as Timlin in CRIMES OF THE FUTURE (2022) dir. David Cronenberg

Margaret Atwood, Power Politics

“Of all the female characters in the Arthurian legend, Morgana is the most powerful, even more so than Merlin. Merlin may be a powerful prophet, Morgana is the practitioner. Merlin sees what can go wrong, Morgana accomplishes it. Morgana considers Merlin a somewhat tiresome old man, and it is fitting that it is her derivative character, Nimue, who finally divests Merlin of his power and confines him to his crystal cave. Morgana must still be smiling through the mists.”

— Sara Douglass, “The Betrayal of Arthur”
