She still looms large in feminist demands for sexual freedom, evoked as a censorial demagogue, more than a decade after her death. Among the very first writers to use her own experiences of rape and battery in a revolutionary analysis of male supremacy, Dworkin was a philosopher outside and against the academy who wrote with a singular, apocalyptic urgency. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eLast Days at Hot Slit \u003c\/i\u003ebrings together selections from Dworkin's work, both fiction and nonfiction, with the aim of putting the contentious positions she's best known for in dialogue with her literary oeuvre. The collection charts her path from the militant primer \u003ci\u003eWoman Hating\u003c\/i\u003e (1974), to the formally complex polemics of \u003ci\u003ePornography\u003c\/i\u003e (1979) and \u003ci\u003eIntercourse\u003c\/i\u003e (1987) and the raw experimentalism of her final novel \u003ci\u003eMercy \u003c\/i\u003e(1990). It also includes \"Goodbye to All This\" (1983), a scathing chapter from an unpublished manuscript that calls out her feminist adversaries, and \"My Suicide\" (1999), a despairing long-form essay found on her hard drive after her death in 2005.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAndrea Dworkin (1946-2005) was an American radical feminist author associated with antipornography, antirape, and battered women's movements of the 1970s and 80s.
