Praise for Eve Ensler:
"Eve Ensler can soar to Rabelaisian heights or move us with quiet compassion. . . . She may not save the world, but what other playwrights even think of trying?"
-Time Acclaim for The Vagina Monologues
"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 "The monologues are part of Eve Ensler's crusade to wipe out the shame and embarrassment that many women still associate with their bodies or their sexuality. [They] are both a celebration of women's sexuality and a condemnation of its violation."
-The New York Times "Women have entrusted Eve with their most intimate experiences. . . . I think readers, men as well as women, will emerge from these pages feeling more free within themselves-and about each other."
-GLORIA STEINEM

Addressing such issues as botox, bulimia, and breast implants, this provocative play explores the anguish, obsessions, and vulnerabilities of women as they reflect on their relationship with their bodies, from an aging magazine executive and her desperate pursuit of youth to an L.A. woman being surgically reconstructed by her plastic surgeon spouse. Reprint. 50,000 first printing.

Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Botox, bulimia, breast implants: Eve Ensler, author of the international sensation The Vagina Monologues, is back, this time to rock our view of what it means to have a good body. In the 1950s, Eve writes, girls were pretty, perky. They had a blond Clairol wave in their hair. They wore girdles and waist-pinchers. . . . In recent years good girls join the army. They climb the corporate ladder. They go to the gym. . . . They wear painful pointy shoes. They dont eat too much. They . . . dont eat at all. They stay perfect. They stay thin. I could never be good.The Good Body starts with Eves tortured relationship with her own post-forties stomach and her skirmishes with everything from Ab Rollers to fad diets and fascistic trainers in an attempt get the flabby badness out. As Eve hungrily seeks self-acceptance, she is joined by the voices of women from L.A. to Kabul, whose obsessions are also laid bare: A young Latina candidly critiques her humiliating spread, a stubborn layer of fat that she calls a second pair of thighs. The wife of a plastic surgeon recounts being systematically reconstructedinch by inchby her perfectionist husband. An aging magazine executive, still haunted by her mothers long-ago criticism, describes her desperate pursuit of youth as she relentlessly does sit-ups.Along the way, Eve also introduces us to women who have found a hard-won peace with their bodies: an African mother who celebrates each individual body as signs of natures diversity; an Indian woman who transcends treadmill mania and delights in her plump cheeks and curves; and a veiled Afghani woman who is willing to risk imprisonment for a taste of ice cream. These are just a few of the inspiring stories woven through Eves global journey from obsession to enlightenment. Ultimately, these monologues become a personal wake-up call from Eve to love the good bodies we inhabit. The author of the international sensation "The Vagina Monologues," is back, this time to rock views of what it means to have a "good body." She is joined by the voices of women from L.A. to Kabul, whose obsessions are also laid bare. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
