About the book
In 1970, Kate Millett caused a sensation with the publication of her manifesto, Sexual Politics. She dared to argue that traditional sexual customs were destructive, and that only free sex can lead to ideal relationships! Liberated women lionized her! Time Magazine put her on the cover! and Norman Mailer wrote a furious rebuttal! Now, in Flying, a stunning, intensely revealing memoir, she cries out for understanding of how she tried to cope with her life.
