The Vagina Monologues by Eve Ensler
2.0
This caught my eye in Waterstones the other day - I've heard mention of the V-Monologues throughout my time at school and university and I've always wanted to give them a read. Unfortunately, I was disappointed. The play itself felt half-baked and as much was left out as was included, which was disheartening. I'm also not too fond of the terminology - the language romanticised something that is biological and while it dealt sensitively with a myriad of issues that should not exist in this day and age (and should never have existed in the first place), it never took off the kiddie gloves, not fully. I'm not ashamed to admit I couldn't finish it.
