Three Womenisan astonishing act of imaginative empathyand a gift to women around the world who feel like their desires are ignored and their voices aren't heard.This is a book that blazes, glitters and cuts to the heart of who we are. I'm not sure that a book can do much more
When I picked it up, I felt I'd been waiting half my life to read it; when I put it down, it was as though I had been disembowelled.There isn't a woman alive who won't recognise - her stomach lurching, her heart beating wildly - something of what Maggie, Lina and Sloane go through
Anextraordinarypiece of non-fiction -a page-rippingly intimate and compelling narration of the desires and sexual proclivities of three real women.Taddeo does not sensationalise, but nor is she coy;the narrative crackles with the visceral details of eroticism.The result feels like a new genre
A book with the thrill of the newthat you can expect to dominate WhatsApp threads, line tube carriages and pop up in foreign AirBnbs for years to come. Taddeo hasn't just caught a moment,she has spawned a new genre.Three Womenreminds us that it is both wonderful and brutal to be in love
It'spainful and beautiful, gutting and sexy.I don't think I've read a book that has captivated me as intensely as this one, which I still think about, months later, in the quietest hours of the night
I've never read a work of non-fiction that so candidly and completely accesses the inner sanctums of its subjects' private lives.I must confess that I found this book almost impossibly compelling.Three Womenis a sort of real-world Mills & Boon novel told with the gravitas and momentum of the grittiest, most gripping true crime story.It's the book no one I know can put down, and the one everyone is talking about
Three Womenexamineslove and lust, instigation and exploitation, fairytales and infidelity, girlhood and womanhood and motherhoodand all the liminal spaces between, and it asks big questions about who we are allowed to be as women.I salute Lisa Taddeo
One of theblockbusterpublishing events of 2019.An instant classic
The book every man should read this summer.An incredible feat,Three Womenhas the qualities and the momentum to become a literary sensation
Will have millions nodding in recognition.This is the kind of book you candevour in one sitting
This is theIn Cold Bloodof women's sexuality. Anon-fiction novel of such recurring darkness, truth and astonishment I will probably re-read it every year of my life
After eight years and an almost-telepathic representation of her three subjects - Lina, Maggie and Sloane - Taddeo has created a book that explores these women's desires and disappointments and, in doing so, hasmade something so universal it'll knock the breath right out of you. It'll be a classic of its genre
Taddeo delivers truths you know in your bones(but have probably never verbalised or made sense of) at breakneck speed. You might find yourself needing to scream into a pillow - it just is that kind of book,the kind that deserves all the hyperbole I'm using right now. It is infuriating, brutal, eye-opening and reaffirming. Within a day of starting it, I had forced two friends to read it, because it's impossible not to discuss.This is a book unlike any other you have ever read
As gripping as the most gripping thriller. Moving, immersive, surprising, elegantly written ...You will love it
Extraordinary.I can't remember the last time a book affected me as profoundly asThree Women
Intense and riveting.It gives us epic themes in miniature.These women broke my heart and I won't forget them
I literally could not put it down
[An] instant feminist classic.In thisutterly engrossing, frankly game-changing work of narrative non-fiction, aNew Yorkmagazine contributor profiles a trio of everyday women, shining a light on their darkest desires and how men (and other women) often thwart those wants
It is the deepest dive into our neighbours' consciousnesses that I've ever read, so immersive it approaches the Tolstoyan, and its narcotic pleasures mainline the only thing that can truly save us: empathy
Brilliant.In a year when female sexuality is one of the hottest topics of debate, it's a must-read
Three Womenis riveting -a searing, honest, visceral and compulsive account of women's desire.I've never read anything like it
I don't say this lightly -the greatest book I've ever read about women and desire
I've not read somethingso confronting, humane, and brilliantin a really long time. An outstanding achievement
This is one of the mostriveting, assured and scorchingly original debuts I've ever read. Taddeo's beautifully written and unflinching portraits of desire allow her protagonists to be wholly human and wholly, blessedly complex.I can't imagine a scenario where this isn't one of the most important- and breathlessly debated - books of the year
Very special ... The three stories blend and layer over one another to give a picture of modern gender dynamicsthat feels rather iconic
Three Womenispainstaking, painful, unblinking, unsentimental and utterly unapologetic
This book will amaze you, for articulating so directly and beautifully the chaotic truths of women's desire ...It will astound you,for the mastery of its execution, the surprising descriptive language that crops up in between the clean, intellectual reportage ...This is going to be my non-fiction book of the year
Anincrediblebook about sadness, broken dreams and disappointment -read it immediately
Three Womenis a battle cry. The literary brilliance of the book will knock you back. For anyone who thinks they know what women want,this book is an alarm, and its volume is turned all the way up
I don't think I've ever read such an honest, frank and perceptive portrait of female desire.It is as addictive as a thriller, as well as being supremely well-written, intelligent and insightful
Three Womenis the new required reading for women and any person who wants to know them. Taddeo has given these women's testimonies of desire, love and trauma a brilliance and dignity that isnothing short of revolutionary
Taddeo has combined journalistic rigour with luscious prose ina book set to be one of the summer's most talked about
I've never, ever, read something so honest about womanhood before.Truly, exquisitely, remarkable... It's going to bedeservedly massive
One of the most exciting debuts I've read in years; the writing is muscular and addictive. A powerful record of ebbing disappointments, unspoken feelings and the endless complexity of female desire
Lisa Taddeo'sThree Womenoffers a fascinating excavation of the intricacies of love and desire, where they conspire and where they conflict.Read this book. You will forever rethink the erotics of women
Three Womenallows women to say what they would normally keep hidden.Mostly it reads like a thriller: unputdownable . It is a story you will have never read before
Three Womenis a skilled example of imbricated layering, mixing high trauma with the quotidian, the profound with the peripheral. The testimony on offer here isextremely gripping ...I raced through from cover to cover
What hope is there for non-famous women who scandalise society with their desires? Who will defend them? The answer is American author Lisa Taddeo, whose bookThree Womenrestores dignity, agency and humanity to her belittled subjects, all of whom have been rendered vulnerable by passion. The resultis a blazing act of advocacy, drawn from the writer's forensic analysis and imaginative inhabitation of the women's lives
An urgent, sometimes harrowing trio of true-life stories told withthe spellbinding allure of great fiction
The summer book you won't be able to put down.Lisa Taddeo spent eight long years researching and writingThree Women, but you'll likely race through it in a couple of days. There is an emotional honesty to the book that is sometimes almost painful to read. There are also moments of beauty - it'svery rare to come across such bright and clear descriptions of sex, longing and lust, and they offer a unique insight into the hearts, souls and bodies of women
Three Womenhas already been called the most important book of the year. These are stories about yearning, thwarted and corrupted . It's compelling, in no small part due to the non-fiction as fiction style, which gives ita thriller-like paceand allows for character portraits so intimate they feel oppressive
Destined to be not just one of the books of the summer, but also of the year,Three Womenis a staggering and illuminating achievement
If a measure of outstanding biographical writing is that it closes the gap between how we perceive a person from the outside, and what that person thinks, feels and desires, thenthis debut by a prize-winning writer and journalist not only succeeds, but takes such writing to new heights. An utterly compelling, scorching piece of reportage . You won't want to stop reading it
The most anticipated book of the summer.Nearly impossible to put down once you've committed
The biggest debut of the year.[A] groundbreaking exploration of female desire
So intimate. It's amazing for women's experiences,their sexuality and their passion to be centred and to be valued in this way
Undeniably gripping
Lisa Taddeo'sscorching, revelatorydebut blurs the boundaries between fact and fiction
Extraordinary.If you're looking for your next Book Club choice, this should be it.A masterpiece
Every so often a book comes along that sets the world alight and ignites feverish interest.Reviewers rave about it and readers take to social media to explain why everyone needs to read it - andThree Womenis definitely the book of the moment
