| Summary: | This extraordinary book reimagines beauty at its most provocative and fetishized locus, the female breast. Artist, writer and scholar Joanna Frueh scrutinizes ideals of beauty and sensuality, often motivated by her experiences with breast cancer. Photographer Frances Murray documents Frueh's journey of unapologetic beauty in a series of intimate, dazzlingly original photographs before and after her bilateral mastectomy and chemotherapy. Unapologetic Beauty arrives at a new, liberating view of beauty and of the sensual pleasure found in transformative self-acceptance. |
