Part of the Season Saver!
Sara is a comedian who has talked and joked about female sexuality, psychology and the media’s portrayal of women on stage and screen. While researching her most recent live show, Sara realised that she had a lot more to say. In Animal, her first book, she combines autobiography and evolutionary history to make us laugh and reconsider the female body, from armpit hair to zygots.
In each chapter Sara examines a specific part of aspect of the human female body; why it has evolved and how it is exalted, oppressed, fetishized or misunderstood in modern culture. So much of how we feel about ourselves is programmed by millions of years of successful mating behaviour: our obsession with youth, comparing ourselves to other women, wishing for tiny waists or massive breasts, jealousy, broodiness, infidelity and homosexual feelings. Along the way, she’ll take on plastic surgery, pubes, consent, clitorectomys, gonads, hormonal influences, monogamy, masturbation and virginity.
