The Button

Missing collection

By: Wednesday Martin

Narrated by: Wednesday Martin

Press here for pleasure. Only Wednesday Martin, New York Times bestselling author of Primates of Park Avenue, could combine anthropology, anecdote, and adventure to hilariously right an anatomic wrong.

For millennia, the woman’s most sensitive part has been maligned, misrepresented, and cut out entirely from medical texts, our culture, and our general understanding of female sexuality. Not anymore. Join Martin in the “cliteracy” movement - a stimulating quest from ancient Greece to medieval Europe to the Costa Rican rain forest to rediscover the significance, the symbolic power, the cultural history, the intimidation, the scandal, the vast terrain, and the pleasure of “the button”.

Wednesday Martin’s The Button is part of Missing, a collection of six true stories about finding, restoring, or accepting the losses that define our lives - from the mysterious to the inspiring. Each story can be listened to in a single sitting.

Great for the interested layperson

These were interesting essays, giving a person a brief primer on the clitoris and its recognition by the medical community and the world at large. This is my first title by Wednesday, I would be interested to hear more of her work.

Relatable. Honest. Hot.

There is a good balance of science and narration in this book. Martin tells many relatable stories from her childhood and adolescent years, to which many women can relate. And at the same time, she explains the anatomy of a female body in simple, comprehensible words.
My favorite quote, "Penis is for sex and peeing. Clitoris is for sensation."
Good read.

Well worth an hour of your time

Sharp, engaging, funny, and informative. Wonderfully narrated by the author with a great amount of character. Definitely would love to read more by her.

What every man (and woman) should know!

A delightful and educational read! Ms. Martin has made a "taboo" subject(to some) quite approachable. Quite a few LOL moments. Will def seek out more from this author

Not something that is talked about even today.

I thought this story was well read as well as written. the subject matter is even in this day and age not really openly talked about.
It should be and every women should read this book!
