It’s hard to describe how moving I found this book to be. Gay’s brutally honest recounting of her life and her relationship with her body was incredibly powerful. Her prose is beautiful but also accessible. I felt a deep sense of catharsis listening to her describe the complex relationship women, and particularly SA survivors, have with their body.
Gay’s audiobook narration is also fantastic.
