In her bestselling novel Possessing the Secret of Joy, Walker opened the door to a long-hidden secret by bringing female genital multilation to prominence. This book--based on Parmer's extraordinary film--chronicles the authors' journey together, from California to England to Africa, to interview the people concerned with and affected by this harmful, sometimes deadly process. 40 photos.
