Let's make this birthday one to remember.

87 years old (Born on June 05, 1937)

Happy Birthday, Helene Cixous! May your day be filled with laughter—perhaps even the legendary "Laugh of the Medusa" kind. Your fearless exploration into feminist philosophy and groundbreaking literary works continue to inspire generations, proving that angst can indeed lead to brilliance (and not just existential dread).

From captivating us with "Portrait de Dora" on stage to challenging conventions through your powerful prose, you've shown us all how creativity and courage intertwine beautifully. Here's hoping this birthday brings you as much joy as you've given readers worldwide—and may your pen remain forever sharp, witty, and delightfully rebellious!
