It’s hard to think of a solo female recording artist who has been as revered or as reviled over the course of her career as Tori Amos. Amy Gentry argues that these violent aesthetic responses to Amos’s performance, both positive and negative, are organized around disgust—the disgust that women are taught to feel, not only for their own bodies, but for their taste in music. Released in 1996, Amos’s third album, Boys for Pele, represents the height of Amos’s willingness to explore the ugly qualities that make all of her music, even her more conventionally beautiful albums, so uncomfortably, and so wonderfully, strange. Using a blend of memoir, criticism, and aesthetic theory, Gentry argues that the aesthetics of disgust are useful for thinking in a broader way about women’s experience of all art forms.

An idyllic vacationland becomes the setting for horror when a witch who dared quit the coven turns up dead in a quiet cove. Murders multiply as a tale of vengeance, lust, and greed unfolds. But crusading reporter Kirstin O'Malley is on the scene, trying to prod the authorities into action. Trouble is, her stories threaten to blow the lid off the lives of her fellow Cape Codders-including a few rich, respectable ones with less-than-respectable agendas. And any one of them might just try to shut her up-for good.
