This gorgeous little book challenges prevailing myths about women and love, women and lust, women and words. "When do you follow your desire?" writers were asked. "When do you censor it? When it is a source of power, and when a source of distress?" The result is a daring, funny and highly literate collection of personal essays that presents female desire in all its wonderful complexity. When writing about the satisfactions of a long-term relationshp or the thrill of the first time with somebody new, about secret crushes or openly declared attraction, about desire that is taboo or desire that is tender and familiar, the award-winning contributors, which include Susan Musgrave, Evelyn Lau, Lorna Crozier, Bonnie Burnard,Shani Mootoo,Dionne Brandand Carol Shields, are working at the top of their form. Desire in Seven Voicespresents frank revelations and food for thought. It is a reader's delight.Crozier, Lorna is the author of 'Desire in Seven Voices' with ISBN 9781550548051 and ISBN 1550548050.
