YEAR In her most urgent book yet New York Times bestselling author Jessica Valenti shines a
light on the conservative assault on women’s freedom cutting through the misinformation and

that she’s been painstakingly tracking in her acclaimed newsletter Abortion Every Day .

for the overwhelming majority of Americans who support abortion rights whether they’re
seasoned activists or those just starting to learn. With the wit expertise and blunt moral
clarity that’s made her writing popular for decades Valenti offers an essential manifesto in
an urgent moment.
