Our Choices, Our Lives: Unapologetic Writings on Abortion is a first of it's kind. Based on five years of research by feminist Krista Jacob, this anthology is a collection of essays, poems, and prose that takes on one of the most controversial issues of our time: a woman's right to choose abortion. Revealing, with honesty and courage, the diversity of individuals behind the political hype, this powerful collection of writings takes the issue of reproductive freedom to a deeper, richer level. Comprised of abortion testimonies, insights from abortion clinic workers, and political essays, this important anthology reveals the liberating and sometimes poignant reality of the abortion experience. From the women who survived the days of illegal abortion to the women who have come of age during the backlash against abortion rights, the writers in Our Choices, Our Lives: Unapologetic Writings on Abortion demand that people on all sides rethink this varied, complex and personal issue.
