Written on the Body is a novel by Jeanette Winterson, first published in 1992. The story follows a love affair between the narrator, whose gender is never revealed, and a married woman named Louise. The novel explores themes of love, identity, gender, and the body. The narrator reflects on the nature of desire and the way the body becomes a canvas where experiences and emotions are written. Winterson's prose is poetic and evocative, and the novel is a meditation on the complexity of human relationships and the fluidity of identity.
