'I wish this book had been written before I stopped having them. I
might have enjoyed them more! It's brilliant, informative and
funny. Period.' Jennifer Saunders 'I want to hear what Emma Barnett
says about everything, and this terrific and timely book proves to
be no exception.' Elizabeth Day 'A brilliant, myth-busting, funny
and poignant book.' Helen Pankhurst 'Why has it taken so long for
this powerful, fearless book to be written?' Emma Freud 'Uniquely
funny and forthright.' Pandora Sykes 'Passionate, informed and
thought-provoking.' Jane Garvey 'A must read for everyone. Period.'
Kirsty Wark 'Clever, useful and wise. Read it. Pass it on to your
daughters. And then to your sons.' Fi Glover 'Emma cuts right
through all the myths and embarrassment with searing facts, honesty
and, perhaps more importantly, humour. A bleeding good read.' Yomi
Adegoke 'Terrific. Unique. Never read anything like it.' Richard
Madeley 'A brilliant, brave rallying shout out to anyone who's
suffered in silence and wondered why they had to.' Emily Maitlis
'Smart, funny, enjoyable... I bloody loved it!' Becky Vardy 'Don't
be revolted, lead the revolt - preferably with a grin on your face
and a tampon tucked proudly behind your ear.' Emma loathes her
period. Really, she does. But there's something she loathes even
more: not being able to talk about it. Freely, funnily and
honestly. Without men and women wrinkling their noses as if she's
pulled her tampon out and offered it as an hors d'oeuvre. But
somehow, despite women having had periods since the dawn of time,
we've totally clammed up on anything to do with menstruation. Why,
oh why, would we rather say 'Auntie Flo' than 'period'? Why, in the
21st century, are periods still seen as icky? Why are we still so
ignorant about such a fundamental bodily process? Now, in Period.,
Emma draws on female experiences that will make you laugh, weep
(and, most probably, squirm), in a fierce and funny rallying cry to
smash this ridiculous taboo once and for all. Because it's about
bloody time. Period.
