Details: (c) 2007 Hanne Blank; Pub 2007 Bloomsbury USA; ISBN 1-59691-010-0
Verdict: Virgin is lively and interesting.
Reasons for reading it: I was readingmisia's journal while she was writing Virgin and it seemed such a fascinating project I wanted to read the end result.
How it came into my hands: I bought it from Amazon, nice shiny new hardback, because reading her blog meant I had enough trust in Blank's writing to pay real money for the book. And it is a very nice edition, lovely paper, attractive typeface, and a sparsely elegant cover (I am so glad thatmisia won her argument and stopped the publishes from using the clichéd image of a naked woman's torso).
