“Book Descriptions: "The writers in Stained offer their menarche stories, sometimes magical, sometimes traumatic; their menopause stories filled with longings and goodbyes. But they are also writing all that comes in between, the stories spoken in whispers: the stains, blood-soaked sex, the babies wanted or not and the bleeding after. Endometriosis, PMDD, birth control, body dysmorphia—and many stories of medical mistreatment. Some of these writers see the blood of their bodies as an expression of their selfhood, an aspect of their own magic."
