About this deal
SureShot Books Publishing LLC is part of the SureShot 2k family of companies that was founded in 1990 to help the families of prison inmates, by providing reasonably priced books, newspapers, & magazines. The shame is universal and the silence a global rule. Across the world, 2 billion people experience menstruation, yet menstruation is seen as a mark of shame. We are told not to discuss it in public, that tampons and sanitary pads should be hidden away, the blood rendered invisible. In many parts of the world, poverty, culture and religion collide causing the taboo around menstruation to have grave consequences. In It's Only Blood Anna Dahlqvist tells the shocking but always moving stories of why and how people from Sweden to Bangladesh, from the United States to Uganda, are fighting back against the shame. Younger people who menstruate are deterred from going to school, adults from work, infections are left untreated. Weight: 218g Dimension: 203 x 127 x 12 (mm) ISBN-13: 9781801148788
