Beyond Penetration is a brief and striking manifesto by the French writer
Martin Page, translated into Spanish by Xavier Estrela.
The book questions the centrality of penetration in contemporary sexual imagination and opens a space for reflection
on desire, intimacy, and the many ways we relate to one another. Page proposes understanding sexuality as part
of human invention: a realm crossed by culture, art, and politics, where pleasure,
fears, and social expectations intertwine.
Far from stereotypes and imposed norms, this work invites valuing difference and dismantling the idea
of a “normality” that excludes and judges.
A critical, brief, and provocative read that challenges both readers interested in gender theory and sexuality
as well as those seeking new ways to think about intimacy.
