In a stirring and succinct examination of post- Roe America “one of the most successful and
visible feminists of her generation” ( Washington Post ) takes on what’s become the country’s
most resonant political issue. 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 overwhelm to inform engage and enrage. From the attacks
Americans know about to the ones anti-abortion lawmakers and groups are trying to hide Valenti
details the tactics and horrors that she’s been painstakingly tracking in her acclaimed
newsletter Abortion Every Day . Abortion gives voice to women’s frustration and outrage in
a moment when they’re fed up with being talked over and diminished. And in an election year
when abortion is dominating the national conversation Valenti provides the language facts
and context readers need to feel confident when talking about the attacks on their bodies and
freedom. Abortion is a handbook 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.
