Animal: The Autobiography of a Female Body

'Thrust this book into the hands of any young female. Their brothers should take a look, too.' Hepzibah Anderson, Mail on Sunday **** 'Comedian Sara Pascoe shares the latest scientific thinking on love, sex and 'clever old fat', as well as her own experiences in a book that is saliently smart, thought-provoking and brilliantly silly.' Psychologies Women have so much going on, what with boobs and jealousy and menstruating and broodiness and sex and infidelity and pubes and wombs and jobs and memories and emotions and the past and the future and themselves and each other. Here's a book that deals with all of it. Sara Pascoe has joked about feminity and sexuality on stage and screen but now she has a book to talk about it all for a bit longer. Animal combines autobiography and evolutionary history to create a funny, fascinating insight into the forces that mould and affect modern women. Animal is entertaining and informative, personal and universal - silly about lots of things and serious about some. It's a laugh-out-loud investigation to help us understand and forgive our animal urges and insecurities.
