Gillian Anderson: Want

Acclaimed actor and star of the hit Netflix drama Sex Education, Gillian Anderson, presents her new book Want, a groundbreaking volume of anonymous female correspondence about sexual desire.

How do women feel about sex when they have the freedom to be totally anonymous?

When women talk about sex, they talk about womanhood and motherhood, infidelity and exploitation, consent and respect, fairness and egalitarianism, love and hate, pleasure and pain… And yet for many reasons – some complicated, some not – so many women don’t talk about it.

In this generation-defining book, Gillian Anderson reveals what women think about sex when they have the freedom to be totally themselves.
