One of the bestselling and most respected cultural critics, Naomi Wolf, acclaimed author of The Beauty Myth and The End of America, brings an astonishing work of cutting-edge science and cultural history that radically reframes how we understand the vagina — and, consequently, how we understand women. A “New Biography,” Vagina is at once serious, provocative and immensely entertaining —a radical and endlessly fascinating exploration of the gateway to female consciousness from a remarkable writer and thinker at the forefront of the new feminism.
