Has anyone seen or read about this book (which may not yet be published)? The author, William Vollmann, a well regarded writer, dressed as a woman, took photos of himself while dressed, and put the photos in the book together with prose he wrote while dressed (I believe). According to one article, he said, "Women are the ones who give life and try to pick up the pieces.... What a great gender they are." He wants to "understand them and honor them as much as I can."

Looks like it was published last month.

Carley,
thanks for the heads up.
Mich,
Thanks for the link.
Not my kind of book or presentation.
Interesting all the same.

Mich, thanks for the link. From the Amazon free pages it looks interesting. He says, "Not only am I physically and emotionally attracted to women, I also wonder what being a woman would be like." I think many CDs wonder that.
