Muscio's book, Cunt: A Declaration of Independence (Seal Press, 1998),[1][2] calls for women to break down boundaries between themselves, their bodies, and each other. The book was given the 1999 Firecracker Alternative Book Award for Nonfiction.[3]
Her book Autobiography of a Blue-Eyed Devil: My Life and Times in a Racist Imperialist Society (Seal Press, 2005) examines and critiques white privilege, racism, and colonialism among other issues.
Her third book, Rose: Love in Violent Times (Seven Stories Press, 2010),[4] examines the presence of passive and physical violence in our daily lives and describes how we might find love within this violence.
