FEAR OF FLYING by ERICA JONG
Isadora Wing, a poet, accompanies her psychiatrist husband Bennett to a conference in Vienna. She suddenly leaves him for a protracted affair with Adrian Goodlove, a British psychologist.
Originally published in 1973, this uninhibited story of Isadora Wing was a national sensation: fueling fantasies, igniting debates, and even introducing a notorious new phrase to the English language. In The New York Times, Henry Miller compared it to his own classic Tropic of Cancer, predicting, "This book will make literary history, that because of it women are going to find their own voice and give us great sagas of sex, life, joy, and adventure." It went on to sell more than twelve million copies. Today, Fear of Flying is a classic—a timeless tale of self-discovery, liberation, and womanhood.
