Book description
Eve Ensler is back and has set her sight slightly higher with an
intimate contemplation of her second greatest obsession: her tortured
relationship with her post-forties stomach.
Ensler toured the world asking women about their bodies and gives us
their wild and wonderful and deeply moving stories. She frames these
stories with her own personal journey, serving up riotous excerpts
from her lifelong dialogue with her stomach - a sassy and conniving
antagonist in its own right. We follow her through the serial
seduction of low-carb diets, ab rollers and personal trainers, to the
wise words of a woman who taught her how to love her body, and see
that it was good...
Eve Ensler is the author of THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES, a theatrical and
publishing sensation that has sold over half a million copies worldwide
and has been translated into twenty-seven languages. Winner of a
Guggenheim and Obie award, she is co-founder and guiding spirit of
V-day, an international movement to fight violence against women (see
vday. org). She lives in New York City.
