These diverse voices rise up in a collective roar to break open, expose, and examine the insidiousness of brutality, neglect, a punch, or a put-down. Here is Edward Albee on S\u0026amp;M; Maya Angelou on womens work; Michael Cunningham on self-mutilation; Dave Eggers on a Sudaneseabduction; Carol Gilligan on a daughter witnessing her mother being hit; Susan Miller on raising a son as a single mother; and Sharon Olds on a bra.These writings are inspired, funny, angry, heartfelt, tragic, and beautiful. But above all, together they create a true and profound portrait of this issues effect on every one of us. With information on how to organize an Until the Violence Stops event in your community, A Memory, a Monologue, a Rant, and a Prayer is a call to the world to demand an end to violence against women.In the current era, it takes some brain racking to think of anyone else doing anything quite like Ensler.
