Book Review #37

Insecure at Last: Losing It in Our Security-Obsessed World by Eve Ensler

This is the most important book of the year. The author of The Vagina Monologues holds nothing back as she discusses her abusive father and her trips around the world to places the average American avoids like the plague--places like Afghanistan, Kosova, and New Orleans after the storm.

By exposing herself to the things she fears the most she discovers peace in the undeniable insecurity of our existence. Through her journey we find that our nation's notion of security is leading us in the opposite direction. We find that despite the messages we are innundated with we are whole. We are enough.

General consensus: I highly reccomend this book for its courage and inspiration.
