Erica Jong, who has taken the fear out of flying and being fifty, now weighs up the currency of another "F" word, feminism. This is a kaleidoscopic collection of Jong's provocative prose, covering politics, pornography, motherhood and writing, with turns in the limelight from Hillary Rodham Clinton, Lolita, Princess Diana and Louise Woodward.
Erica Jong surfs the much vaunted "waves" of feminism from bold ancestors and pioneering activists through "sexual harassment commandoes" towards a new millennial sexual politics with a truce between the sexes. Jong's vision is fresh, unpredictable and upbeat.
