Buddhist Eve Ensler has helped women all over the world tell the stories of their lives through the stories of their bodies. Her play, The Vagina Monologues,
has become a global force in the face of violence against women and
girls. She herself also had a violent childhood. And it turns out
that she herself was like so many of us Western women, obsessed with our
bodies and yet not inhabiting them -- without even knowing we were not
inhabiting them. Until she got a wake up call from that unspeakable C-word, cancer.
