Unspeakable Acts book cover
Unspeakable Acts is an important and urgent book. Princenthal's deep knowledge of the feminist art movement of the 1970s, her understanding of the psychological dimensions of sexual violence, and her sensitivity as a writer make this a profound and necessary contribution to art history.
