WhenThe Naked Womanwas originally published in 1950, critics doubted a woman writer could be responsible for its shocking erotic content. In this searing critique of Enlightenment values, fantastic themes are juxtaposed with brutal depictions of misogyny and violence, and frantically build to a fiery conclusion.
Finally available to an English-speaking audience, Armona Somers will resonate with readers of Clarice Lispector, Djuna Barnes, and Leonora Carrington.
