Poet, novelist, and essayist, the legendary Erica Jong--whose novel Fear of Flying opened eyes and broke down walls--offers us a provocative collection of essays about sex from some of the most respected female authors writing today. "Real Women Write about Real Sex" in Sugar in My Bowl, as such marquee names as Gail Collins, Eve Ensler, Daphne Merken, Anne Roiphe, Liz Smith, Naomi Wolf, and Jennifer Weiner, to name but a few, join together to speak openly about female desire--what provokes it and what satisfies it. In the free, unfettered spirit of The Bitch in the House, Sugar in My Bowl explores the bedroom lives of women with daring, wit, intelligence, and candor.
