Non-Fiction Memoir
Though they have the vote and the Pill and haven't been
burned as witches since 1727, life isn't exactly a stroll
down the catwalk for modern women. They are beset by
uncertainties and questions: Why are they supposed to get
Brazilians? Why do bras hurt? Why the incessant talk about
babies? And do men secretly hate them? Caitlin Moran interweaves provocative observations on
women's lives with laugh-out-loud funny scenes from her own,
from the riot of adolescence to her development as a writer,
wife, and mother. With rapier wit, Moran slices right to the
truth—whether it's about the workplace, strip clubs, love,
fat, abortion, popular entertainment, or children—to
jump-start a new conversation about feminism. With humor,
insight, and verve, How To Be a Woman lays bare the reasons
why female rights and empowerment are essential issues not
only for women today but also for society itself.
