A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant and a Prayer

Work:: A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant and a Prayer (S0568493171)


Production:: (T2074822026)

A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant and A Prayer is a ground-breaking collection of monologues by world-renowned authors and playwrights, edited by Eve Ensler (author of The Vagina Monologues) and Mollie Doyle. Each diverse voice rises up in a collective roar to break open, expose, and examine the insidiousness of violence at all levels: brutality, neglect, a punch, even a put-down. The volume features such authors and topics as: Edward Albee on S&M; Maya Angelou on women's work; Patricia Bosworth on her own physically abusive relationship; Jane Fonda on reclaiming our Mojo; and many more. The monologues are funny, angry, heartfelt, tragic, and beautiful. But above all, together they create a true and profound portrait of how violence against women affects every one of us. 100% of the proceeds go to charity helping Women for Women International and V-Day to aid women and girls affected by war, rape and trafficking. Join us as we send a call to the world to end violence against women. The beneficiaries of this year's fundraising will be: Bede House in Southwark, which helps, among others, victims of Domestic Violence & LGBT Hate Crime, and Women and Girls of Haiti, which supports a national program in Haiti led by a coalition of women activists that is addressing sexual violence through art, advocacy, safe shelter and legal services.
