The three women who shared their experiences were very brave to do so, but I do not believe that the author did their stories justice. This book was just sad and it spoke more to the abuse women suffer under the power of men and less on women’s desires themselves.

 In my opinion, the prose in this book is exceptional. While the ending of this book fell a bit flat for me, I think Three Women is an important sociological examination of women's sexuality, and how the lingering shadow of sexual violence (either literal or implied) can shape the course of a woman's life within her relationships, specifically with men. Maggie's storyline was the most compelling to me, personally. A worthwhile read for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of intimacy.
