About the author

Virginie Despentes is a French author known for her provocative, raw, and unapologetic writing style. Despentes is known for her powerful feminist essay King Kong Theory, where she blends personal experience with sharp social critique.

About this project

A Book to Wear is a collection of enamel book pins created by illustrator Judy Kaufmann for independent bookstores, concept shops, museums, and readers who enjoy connecting with books in a more personal and meaningful way. Each pin is dedicated to a specific author or literary work, from 1984 and Jane Eyre to Susan Sontag, Annie Ernaux, Mary Shelley, and The Bell Jar. Designed to sit naturally alongside books, the collection encourages impulse purchases while blending seamlessly into carefully curated literary spaces. A custom wooden display is also available, making the pins easy to present neatly at the counter.
