Reviews"Women have entrusted Eve with their most intimate experiences, from sex to birthing. . . . I think readers, men as well as women, will emerge from these pages feeling more free within themselves-and about each other." -Gloria Steinem "Spellbinding, funny, and almost unbearably moving . . . it is both a work of art and an incisive piece of cultural history, a poem and a polemic, a performance and a balm and a benediction." -Variety "Often wrenching, frequently riotous. . . . Ensler is an impassioned wit." -Los Angeles Times "A compelling rhapsody of the female essence. . . . Ultimately Ensler achieves something extraordinary." -Chicago Tribune Join the V-Day movement!

SynopsisDrawing on conversations with hundreds of women about their genitalia, the author presents a collection of performance pieces from her show of the same name.
I decided to join Emma Watson's "Our Shared Shelf" finally. First book for 2017 was The Vagina Monologues. Not going to lie, I never actually looked into what this was about, I just thought it was a little far-fetched having the word "Vagina" in it. I was completely wrong. I am half way through the book and it's very educational, mind-opening and gives me a new perspective as a woman. I would definitely recommend this book to other women. Especially to any one who is self-conscious. This book is extremely empowering and makes you love and accept yourself if you don't already.
