Title : A Perfect Body - Eve Ensler - Book Summary : Here a nose job, there a Botox treatment, elsewhere an endless diet: everywhere women remain subject to this implacable law of beauty, everywhere established canons push them to mutilate themselves, to endure deprivation, to put their lives in danger. Sometimes, and even often, of their own free will... After having humorously broken the last taboos concerning female sexuality in the now famous Vagina Monologues, Eve Ensler looks with the determination and humor for which she is known at the tyranny of the perfect body. She traces the journeys of women from very different backgrounds: the director of a New York women's magazine, an uninhibited Indian woman in her fifties, a bulimic Arab girl. All recount their alienation, the dictates of appearance, their thirst for resistance or, on the contrary, their abdication in the face of the demands of the culture in which they grew up. Between two stories, like a common thread, the author deliciously inveighs against her stomach - which she always finds too fat - and denounces with scathing frankness the violence done to women.
