Thurman is one of the preeminent essayists of our time—“a master ofvivisection,” as Kathryn Harrison wrote in The New York Times.“When she’s done with a subject, it’s still living, mystery intact.” In thevarious essays and profiles of A Left-Handed Woman,she considers culture in all its guises— literature, history, politics,gender, fashion, art, and more—though their paramount subject is the humancondition.
