Produktinformationen zu „Not That Bad “
Edited by Roxane Gay, the New York Times bestselling and deeply beloved author of Bad Feminist and Hunger, an anthology of first-person essays and short pieces about sexual harassment, assault, and unwanted advances - the kind of experiences often dismissed as "Not that bad" as they stop short of rape.
Klappentext zu „Not That Bad “
In this valuable and timely anthology, cultural critic and bestselling author Roxane Gay has collected original and previously published pieces that address what it means to live in a world where women have to measure the harassment, violence, and aggression they face, and where they are ?routinely second-guessed, blown off, discredited, denigrated, besmirched, belittled, patronized, mocked, shamed, gaslit, insulted, and bullied? for speaking out. Highlighting the stories of well-known actors, writers, and experts, as well as new voices being published for the first time, Not That Bad covers a wide range of topics and experiences, from an exploration of the rape epidemic embedded in the refugee crisis to first-person accounts of child molestation and street harassment.
Often deeply personal and always unflinchingly honest, this provocative collection both reflects the world we live in and offers a call to arms insisting that ?not that bad? must no longer be good enough.
