A review by theyoungveronica
Sexual Personae: Art and Decadence from Nefertiti to Emily Dickinson by Camille Paglia

3.0

I read this book a while ago, counting in book-time (As in 6 or 7 books ago—temporally, not too long ago).

I can't articulate my thoughts on this titan of a book as of now. I know I loved reading it as well as I know that I disagreed with most of its primary assertions.

Also,
I have a strange desire to physically fight Camille Paglia.

I'm a waif, so I definitely would not hurt her. She simply seems like she would be a fun person to wrestle.

(Paglia in a video: "I'm in an in-your-face feminist", during which she accuses feminists of being puritanical and orders them to 'go read a book, go to an art store, go look at a painting, Caravaggio, Michelangelo, go look at Greek art!')
