Tits Up

In Tits Up, author and sociologist Sarah Thornton explores the cultural significance of female breasts through her own experience with a double mastectomy and encounters with a diverse range of individuals, including performers and medical experts. Blending sociology, history, art, and culture, the book examines how breasts influence notions of beauty, health, and equality, with the aim of challenging patriarchal prejudices. Written with wit and optimism, it offers a fresh perspective on a body part that holds immense cultural importance.
