Prominent feminist and author of The Vagina Monologues Eve Ensler talks to Newsclick about her new book, The Apology. In an attempt to liberate herself from her abuser, Ensler wrote her book as a letter of repentance from her deceased father, who had violated her since the age of five. The Apology is a powerful memoir that re-imagines the idea of closure for abuse victims everywhere. “Sixteen thousand years of patriarchy, and the one thing women have never heard is an apology from her abuser.”
