*Publishers Weekly Best Books of 2018*
Sohaila Abdulali was gang-raped as a teenager in Bombay. Indignant at the silence on the issue in India, she wrote an article for a woman's magazine questioning how we perceive rape and rape victims. Thirty years later her story went viral. Drawing on her own experience, her work with survivors as the head of a rape crisis centre in Boston, her research, and three decades of grappling with the issue personally and professionally, What We Talk About When We Talk About Rape is about changing the conversation around rape culture, questioning our assumptions, and deciding how we want to raise the next generation.

She asks pertinent questions: Is rape always a life-defining event? Doesrape always symbolize something? Is rape worse than death? Is rape relatedto desire? Who gets raped? Is rape inevitable, like the weather? Is one rapeworse than the other? Who rapes? What is consent? How do you recover asense of safety and joy? How do you raise sons? Who gets to judge?What We Talk About When We Talk About Rape is neither a memoir nor anacademic study but it is deeply personal and meticulously researched. It is arallying cry and required reading for us all. A literary, thoughtful, provocative and intelligent look at sexual assault and the global discourse on rape from the viewpoint of a survivor, writer, counsellor and activist.
