**"Brutalities is electric with insight, riveted by its commitmentsto love and bewilderment, to bearing witnessand utterly propulsive." Leslie Jamison, author of The Empathy Exams
A searing, vivid memoir that investigates the dynamics of violence, power, desire, and a body pushed to the brink.**
Quarantined in a southwestern desert city in the midst of her high-risk pregnancy, Margo Steines felt her life narrow around her growing body, compelling her to reckon with the violence entangled in its history. She was a professional dominatrix in New York City, a homestead farmer in a brutal relationship, a welder on a high-rise building crew, and a mixed martial arts enthusiast; each of her many lives brought a new perspective on how power and masculinity coalesceand how far she could push her body toward the brink. With unflinching candor, Steines searches for the roots of her erstwhile attraction to pain while charting the complicated triumph of gentleness and love.
