"A "New York Times "Notable Book of 2007
""
Cleopatra's Nose "is an exuberant gathering of essays and profiles,
representing twenty years of Judith Thurman's writing, particularly
her fascination with human vanity, femininity, and "women's
work"--a term that, in her definition, encompasses haute couture,
literature, and ruling empires. The subjects are varied--Cleopatra,
Jackie Kennedy, Anne Frank; tofu, performance art, pornography--but
as a whole these essays hint at the central preoccupations of a
uniquely inquisitive mind.
