Keeping Away the Spiders
About this book:
In a series of honest, often humorous and brutally frank essays, Anne Pia discusses sexuality, gender identity, reluctant feminism, and food as a sumptuous, sensual game-changer. She conveys her exhilaration at the transformative power of music and learning, clothes and fashion. She gives an unflinching account of coming to terms with a daughter’s disability.
This life-changing book shows how positive energy can be drawn from life’s most challenging experiences. Anne asks the central question: ‘Who am I and who do I want to be?’ and invites the reader to do the same.
Reviews
‘No one can question Pia’s lust for life... unquestionably a fire sign, fuelled for creativity, experiment, exploration and expansion, with bravado enough to voice her view; a feminist in the face of ‘male oracles’. This book is a tentative embrace with poetry.’
Janette Ayachi
‘Brimming with insight, poetry and music’
