A collection of essays from Judith Thurman, National Book Award-winning writer and New Yorker staff writer. Judith Thurman, a prolific staff writer at The New Yorker for more than two decades, has gathered a selection of her essays and profiles in A Left-Handed Woman. They consider our culture in all its guises: literature, history, politics, gender, fashion, and art, though their paramount subject is the human condition. Thurman is one of the preeminent essayists of our time--"a master of vivisection," as Kathryn Harrison wrote in The New York Times. "When she' s done with a subject, it' s still living, mystery intact. "
In this rewarding collection, Thurman brings together a remarkably varied collection of her New Yorker essays . . . The author approaches each topic with a fresh eye. [A Left-Handed Woman] solidifies Thurman as a master of the form. --Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
Judith Thurmanis the author of Cleopatra' s Nose: 39 Varieties of Desire; Isak Dinesen: The Life of a Storyteller, winner of the National Book Award; and Secrets of the Flesh: A Life of Colette. A staff writer at The New Yorker, she lives in New York City.
