Synopsis

Marie Nazon's treasure trove of women's voices from all over the globe is - at last - the answer to Sigmund Freud's famous question: "What does a woman want?" Inspired by a creative writing prompt, Nazon asked this simple question to over one hundred women of different ages, cultures, ethnic and racial backgrounds and socio-economic status spanning four continents. Their responses are powerful and brilliant, funny and profound. Women's power, wisdom, and longing for meaningful connection radiate in their reflections on relationships and intimacy, equity, spirituality, sisterhood, and more. In "What a Women Want...," Nazon has compiled a sublime montage that takes the reader on a thrilling exploration of women's innermost thoughts and desires.
