Set Fear on Fire

“LASTESIS, the Chilean feminist performance collective, shows today how popular art can be about changing the world, not entertaining.”
—Nadya Tolokonnikova, Time Magazine

“This book is poetry, manifesto, collective knowledge, rage, and action. LASTESIS demonstrates that the feminist movement is not anti-intellectual, but rather redefines concepts and political theses: theory is a chant, a performance, a language embedded in bodies, and a way of collective existence.”
—Verónica Gago, author of Feminist International

“Introduces LASTESIS’S angry, galvanising and feminist vision to the Global North…Set Fear on Fire transforms the readers’ own patriarchal terror into feminist rage.”
—Naomi Larsson Piñeda, ArtReview

“Poignant … Set Fear On Fire is both its own powerful thing and part of something wider.”
—Eilidh Akilade, The List
