Description

Praise for Cunt: Bright, sharp, empowering, long-lasting, useful, sexy.-San Francisco ChronicleCunt does for feminism what smoothies did for high-fiber diets-it reinvents the oft-indigestible into something sweet and delicious.-BUSTCunt is one of the most dangerous books I ever read, ever.-Robin D. G. KelleyWith trademark precision and razor-sharp wit, Inga Muscio explores the impacts of passive violence, abuse, war, and cultural trauma on our most intimate lives in order to uncover a path toward healthy and imaginative sex and love.Rose breaks new ground in answering a fundamental question in most feminist and anti-racist writing: how do we identify, witness, and then recover from trauma-as individuals, as families, as communities, and as a country? Muscio’s ability to address dire topics with a unique freshness and bravery allows her readers to come face to face with the true brutality of a violent culture, and then react powerfully with righteous rage and hopeful determination.Chilling, eye-opening, and thoroughly enjoyable, Rose offers a truly new and exhilarating perspective on achieving empowerment and self-possession.Inga Muscio is the author of Cunt: A Declaration of Independence and Autobiography of a Blue-Eyed Devil. She lives in the Pacific Northwest and has an extensive lecture schedule across the nation.
