Provocations: Collected Essays on Art, Feminism, Politics, Sex, and Education

One of the Best Books of the Year: Kirkus ReviewsÂ

A timely and lavishly comprehensive collection from the inimitable critical firebrandâ€”hailed as "a fearless public intellectual and more necessary than everâ€ (The New York Times)â€”tackling sex, art, feminism, politics, and education, and covering the full span of her wide-ranging and important career.
Â
Much has changed since Camille Paglia first burst onto the scene with her groundbreaking Sexual Personae, but the laser-sharp insights of this major American thinker continue to be ahead of the curveâ€”not only capturing the tone of the moÂment but also often anticipating it. Opening with a blazing manifesto of an introduction in which Paglia outlines the bedrock beliefs that inform her writingâ€”freedom of speech, the necessity of fearless inquiry, and a deep respect for all art, both erudite and popularâ€”Provocations gathers together a rich, varied body of work that illumiÂnates everything from the Odyssey to the Oscars, from punk rock to presidents past and present.
Â
Whatever your political inclination or literÂary and artistic touchstones, Pagliaâ€™s takes are compulsively readable, thought provoking, galÂvanizing, and an essential part of our cultural dialogue, invariably giving voice to what most needs to be said.
