Description

'Pornography is the orchestrated destruction of women's bodies and souls ... it is war on women'

Pornography, Andrea Dworkin argued in this landmark work, is about power: the power of owning, of money, of sex. It is not merely violence against women, but the essential DNA of male dominance. As images of women's bodies continue to be manipulated and consumed, her searing, fearless critique of pornographic media is more urgent and discomfiting than ever.

'The woman who showed us the dark core of pornography, the punishing hatred of women that pervades it' Guardian
