A brave, witty and surprising intervention in how we talk about the difficult stuff, by the bestselling author of The Guilty Feminist
A brave, witty and surprising intervention in the culture wars by the bestselling author of The Guilty Feminist
Does history have a right side? Is cancel culture real? What's the line between comedy and offense? And why are we so obsessed with gender?
We are understandably scared to have some of these conversations. But Deborah Frances-White, bestselling author of The Guilty Feminist, is even more scared of not having them. Having grown up in a cult, she knows the value of freedom of speech, free thinking and the ability to disagree.
In her new book, she encourages us to ask difficult questions, listen, think, compromise and change minds, including our own. And she argues that we don't need to agree on everything in order to find a way out and a way forward on some of the biggest questions in today's world.
Are you ready to talk?
