‘From her early critique of Kate Millett, Cora made clear that patriarchy is never singular, obdurate or simply personified in its worst rigidity by each and every male.’

Jacqueline Rose remembers the feminist critic Cora Kaplan: https://www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v47/n12/jacqueline-rose/on-cora-kaplan
