About This Item
London : HarperCollinsPublishers, 1993. First Edition, First Impression First Printing. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Hardcover in unclipped dust jacket which is clean and bright with minimal wear. Black cloth, gilt titling: clean, bright, square and sharp with minor bumping to spine tips. Page edges lightly spotted and marked. Contents clean, tight and white without bookplates, inscriptions, foxing or other markings. 330 pp. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. "In this shockingly honest - but equally sensitive - taboo-busting book, Margaret Leroy not only examines how and why women achieve or fail to achieve sexual pleasure, but also opens a window on just how different women's sexuality is from men's, and the bearing this has on the way women interrelate with men in our society. Emerging from the stories of the many women who voiced their real feelings - often for the first time - as an attainable vision of how female sexuality could be better understood, better attended to and better fulfilled." - Jacket blurb. All orders professionally packed, tracked and/or signed for, and insured.
