Phantompains is a text of rare power, birthing a brave new world flush with pain, lust, drugs and the Uterus. Estacion's Eunuched Female is a masterpiece: utterly indelible.

 

—Tamara Berger, author of

Queen Solomon

I love Therese Estacion’s book. I love its humour, clarity, irreverence, and rage...Therese Estacion plunged into an abyss — found suffering, dehumanization, terror — and when she emerged, she chose to make radically confrontational art. Phantompains is the cosmic result of her dwelling, and her passage. In her words, “she became the subject” — I think she also became the seer

 

—Sara peters, author of I become a delight to my enemies
