In 1973, Nancy Friday authored "My Secret Garden". She returns to the subject of women's sexual fantasies in this book, in 1991. What she reveals is a shift from fantasies in which women are dominated by men, to women of a new generation, who are in charge of their own needs, pleasures and lives. From the inside dust cover: "What she reveals here-in the graphic, unexpurgated, and often astonishing sex fantasies of over 150 women, drawn from the thousands whom she interviewed and who wrote to her-is nothing short of a revolution...using their erotic muscle to seduce or subdue anyone or anything that stands in the way of orgasm." READER SHOULD NOTE THAT SOME CONTENTS AND LANGUAGE ARE GRAPHIC.
