Synopsis:
A nine-year-old girl molested by a man in a dark movie theater grows up to become a well-to-do feminist whose ideology conflicts with her childhood
Review:
"A powerful voice against violent oppression of women... Dworkin will be one of the vital presences of the 1990s'" (GLASGOW HERALD)
"In every century there are a handful of writers who help the human race to evolve. Andrea is one of them" (GLORIA STEINEM)
"Dworkin is a level-headed, intelligent woman whose language is effective because it never baulks the issue. She tells it like it is and that is unacceptable" (SUNDAY TIMES)
"This troubling novel provokes a collision between hard-line fundamentalism and liberal intellectualism more violent than any since The Satanic Verses" (TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT)
