When Sexes Collide
by Maureen Dowd
Fresh from her success with the bestselling Bushworld, Maureen Dowd turns her lapidary prose and wicked wit to a topic even more incendiary than presidential politics: sexual politics. Four decades after the sexual revolution, nothing has worked out the way it was supposed to. The sexes are circling each other as uneasily and comically as ever, from the bedroom to the boardroom to the Situation Room, and now the New York Times columnist who won a Pulitzer Prize in 1999 for saucy and incisive commentary about the roundelay of Bill, Monica, Hillary, and Ken Starr digs into the Y and X files, exploring the mysteries and muddles of sexual combat in America.
'Dowd's Bushworld, collecting her amped New
York Times op-eds, hit big during the 2004 presidential campaign. This
follow-up is as slapdash as the earlier book was slash-and-burn.' - PW.
'Dowd, who proudly declares that she comes "from a family of Irish
maids," could profitably spend more time writing about the impact of
the antifeminist backlash on people who are still cleaning houses. Her
heart's in the right place, but she really should get out more.' -
