   Reading Klaus Theweleit's "Männerphantasien" (1977) ("Male Phantasies" https://monoskop.org/images/5/54/Theweleit_Klaus_Male_Fantasies_Vol_1_Women_Floods_Bodies_History.pdf). Its collage technique is reminiscent of Susan Griffin's "Woman and Nature: The Roaring Inside Her" (1978) https://archive.org/details/womannaturero00grif/mode/2up . Indeed, two authors, a year apart, probably not knowing each other, related topics but from different angles, in a similiar literary style. (Interestingly, John Brunner in his "The Sheep Look Up" (1972) https://archive.org/details/sheeplookup0000brun_t1i7 uses the same cut-up technique, although more thoroughly than Theweleit and Griffin.)

     The one she became famous for? ("Pornography And Silence" came out three years later.)
