Current Work
Virgin: A History of our Most Controversial Universal, forthcoming from Bloomsbury USA, is a survey of the history of virginity and virgins in the Western world. From Aristotle to True Love Waits, Buffy and Angel to the Virgin Mary and the Angel Gabriel, and from the Vestal Virgins to Britney Spears, Virgin takes an unprecedented exploratory and critical look at this often-forgotten aspect of women's history and human sexuality. |
