First book from London born Slinger. "The book as a whole constitutes a challenge both to the repressive society whose essence it reveals and to woman themselves. It is a revelation of how little, female phantasy has been explored and how its importance does not lie simply in an up-beat positive discovery of a hidden, better self. Penny Slinger shows that the necessary process of facing feminine sexuality head on is not easy." Laura Mulvey, Spare Rib Magazine, 1971. An early 70's feminist masterpiece.

Lovely conceptual project with nice text and super images. Inscribed by Fischer in 1979.
