Animal: The Autobiography of a Female Body

There’s a lot going on under our skin that we don’t have a good grasp of – from hormones that up-end our moods to evolutionary imperatives that promote lust over common sense.

Comedian Sara Pascoe shares the latest scientific thinking on love, sex and ‘clever old fat’, as well as her own life experiences, in a book that is saliently smart, thought-provoking and brilliantly silly.

Animal: The Autobiography of a Female Body by Sara Pascoe (Faber & Faber, £12.99) is out now.
