About this ebook
'Full of wisdom and insight ... I cannot recommend it enough' Julia Samuel
'Brilliant' Katy Hessel
'Fascinating ... a valuable contribution to a wider debate about how women are permitted to own and express their desires' Guardian
From a young bride-to-be struggling to accept her sexuality, to a mother grappling with questions of identity and belonging, and a pensioner falling in love for the first time, What Women Want is an enthralling and deeply intimate examination of womanhood.
With empathy and bravery, psychotherapist Maxine Mei-Fung Chung delves into what makes us who we are. Through her conversations with her patients, she lays bare our fears, our secrets, our wants, and ultimately, our capacity for healing.
To desire is an action. This extraordinary book liberates and empowers us to claim what we truly want.
