The narrative follows Isadora Wing, Erica Jong's own alter ego, at a moment in her life marked by fame, desire and the search for autonomy. Between relationships, excesses and reflections, the protagonist tries to free herself from social conventions and find her own path, in an ironic and uninhibited portrait of an era of cultural change.

For readers of contemporary fiction interested in feminist novels from the seventies, with a female protagonist and an uninhibited tone.
