Body Horror: Capitalism, Fear, Misogyny, Jokes

Unspeakable acts are committed on women's bodies under capitalism everyday. In Body Horror , Anne Elizabeth Moore explores the global toll of capitalism on women with thorough research, surprising humor, and ease—especially when examining her own experiences with disease and health care—to create a portrait of contemporary American culture that is gory and fascinating.

Anne Elizabeth Moore is the author of Unmarketable and Cambodian Grrrl , co-editor and publisher of the now-defunct Punk Planet, a founding editor of Best American Comics, a Fulbright scholar, former UN Press Fellow, and USC Annenberg/Getty Arts Journalism Fellow.
