A collection of sexual fantasies from women around the world, Want is a revelatory, sensational, and game-changing exploration of women’s sexuality that asks, and answers: How do women feel about sex when they have the freedom to be totally anonymous?
“The book you hold in your hands started as an invitation to women across the world, a call for women to share the sexual fantasies, thoughts, and feelings that so many of us hold in our heads but so rarely speak out loud. A chance to gather the voices of women worldwide into a new book of fantasies for a new generation. I have always been intrigued by sexual fantasies, and I view my role in this book as a curator, shepherding these diverse and amazing voices into book form. This book is a platform for the voices of all women, no matter where they come from or how they were born, to enable us, in complete anonymity, not only to share, but paradoxically to be seen and be heard. I want to take away the taboo of fantasies and bring in the body positive, the thrill, and the fun of it all in the hope that this book, your letters, through disclosure, representation, and identification, might inspire.”—Gillian Anderson

Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra (1547–1616), novelist, playwright, and poet, was born in Spain of an ancient but impoverished family. After studying in Madrid, he became a soldier and was wounded in battle. He was taken by pirates in 1575, put in prison at Algiers, and was ransomed five years later. He spent the remainder of his life struggling to earn a livelihood from literature and humble government employment. His first attempt at fiction was a pastoral novel, La Galatea (1585), which was followed by his masterpiece, The Adventures of Don Quixote de la Mancha (1605).
