About the Book In About Face, twenty-five women write about the simple yet radical act of looking—really looking—in the mirror. In essays that reveal truths about the self in the world and which examine the societal prism through which we view—and judge—each other, the contributors to this collection take the cultural conversation about beauty to a deeper level. About Face takes readers on a journey of the interior, into the mirrors and minds of its writers. Some questions they address include: What's the relationship between your physical self and your "true" self? What do or don't you like about the way you look? Do you feel that your face has given or denied you access to one kind of life or another? Looking in the mirror without turning away, without flinching or making excuses or posing, and then talking about it honestly, is a radical act. Women are, after all, aware of the face we show to the world, whether we consciously admit it or not. Contributors include Kathryn Harrison, Jennifer Baumgardner, Patricia Chao, Catherine Texier, Meredith Maran, Louise DeSalvo, Alice Elliott Dark, Marina Budhos, Kamy Wicoff, Sheila Kohler, Manijeh Nasrabadi and Kym Ragusa. |
