Download Appetites: Why Women Want AudioBook Free
In Appetites, Caroline Knapp confronts Freud's famous question, "What do women want?" and boldly reframes it, asking instead: So how exactly does a woman know, and then honor, what it is she wants in a culture bent on shaping, defining, and handling her needs? Knapp, best-selling writer of Drinking alcohol: A Love Tale and Pack of Two: The Intricate Bond Between People and Puppies, has transformed her brilliant vision towards what sort of woman's desire for food - for food, love, work, and pleasure - has become a battlefield. She uses her own experiences with anorexia as a robust exploration of what can occur when we are divorced from our most elementary hungers and offers her own success as testament to the pleasure of stating "I'd like." Provocative, important, and deeply familiar, Appetites beautifullyand urgentlychallenges all women to learn what it is to nourish both body and the heart and soul.
