In the Body of the World by Eve Ensler - Book Report/Review Example

Her life experiences are filled with naivety, and she intends to educate the reader and make them learn from her experiences. While working in Congo, she undergoes a horrific rape (Ensler 96). She also gets to experience the violence that women encounter in that country. After the horrifying and troublesome experience, she is diagnosed with uterus cancer that takes so much time to be treated (Ensler 198). The author connects her experience with the actual situations that women go through silently in many parts of the world. Her piece of work is inspirational, and she calls on all people to take responsibility in ensuring that the world is a better place. She believes that gender violence is rampant, and people fail to consider its effects. Her story elaborates the kind of life that women are forced to go through as a result of gender violence.
