All the men have disappeared. That is to say: all the males. In this novel, where they reproduce by ectogenesis (a means of reproduction that allows them to do without men), women, after having brought life back to an Earth devastated by pollution, Capital and patriarchy, set off to explore a small strange planet far from our solar system. This voyage will contain many surprises for readers of this philosophical tale. “Passionate, imperious. In fresco and in relief” (Victoria Thérame). Le Satellite de l’Amande is the first part of a saga to be continued by Les Bergères de l’apocalypse; the third part of this trilogy, unpublished until recently, was published by Des Femmes-Antoinette Fouque in November 2022.

Original title Le féminisme ou la mort, translation by Gina Giert, Verlag, Frauenoffensive collection, 1975, 221 pages

Françoise’s most famous book, in which she uses the term “ecofeminism” for the first time.

Survival or destruction. Two plagues threaten the world: overpopulation and the destruction of nature. The man of the patriarchal system is responsible for this catastrophe. He has triumphed, but his principle is death. According to Françoise, the time has come for women to take power: “Tear the planet away from male domination today – to give it back to humanity tomorrow”, is her watchword.
