In this memoir, Lally takes the reader on a drunken, dare-devil ride into the depths of dramaturgy and disease. A poetic, no-nonsense reflection on a full creative life that may have only just begun, Lally’s first book made me want to go back to whom I used to be. If you love TMI then this book is for you.’ Brendan Cowell ‘This is gold. There is only one Lally Katz.’ Claudia Karvan ‘Katz’s book is completely addictive and mystical, just like her perspective on the world … and her vagina.’ Yael Stone ‘I only wish every book gave me as much pleasure as this one. Lally Katz is an original-the queen of TMI-and My Cursed Vagina is hilarious, fearless, and perfectly, absurdly candid. Is it wrong to hope for more drama in her life, just so she’ll write a sequel?’ Steve Toltz ‘Lally Katz unzips her entire soul so the rest of us may learn how to be better humans.’ Marieke Hardy Thirteen years ago, a shopfront psychic told me my vagina was cursed. She was a scam artist, but she was also right. The stories in this book follow the different forms this curse has taken and how it followed me as I travelled the world looking for love. They are personal and very specific about sex, dating, marriage and motherhood. And how sometimes the things that alter our paths lead us to the right place. What happens when a soothsayer tells Lally Katz her vagina is cursed? Has the truth been spoken? In My Cursed Vagina Lally shares the many forms this hex takes as she searches for love, compulsively recording her life in real time as she goes. These are hilarious and heartbreaking tales of disastrous dates, hopeful sex, straight-talking friendships, a surprise marriage, the adventure of motherhood and the strange gifts of illness, by a woman who embraces everything life has to offer.
