MEDIA REVIEWS
A frank and funny guide...Full of heart - and answers - this guide will be a useful resource for readers new to perimenopause.I have loved Heather Corinna's work for twenty years,and What Fresh Hell Is This is their best yet. This book feels like your best friend talking to you over drinks-if your best friend is a shit-talking,patriarchy-smashing,intersectionally feminist professor of the history of reproductive medicine and also an endocrinologist with a side hustle as a comedian. Please read this book.Corinna's vast commonsense wisdom-especially on topics relating to gender roles,queer sexuality and gender identities-has the potential to improve the physical and emotional health of anyone who reads it,and to help heal our culture's unhealthy,conflicted approaches to sex,sexuality and gender.
