Hardback, 222 pages, published 2020.
Used, in good-to-acceptable condition. The binding is tight and all pages are clean and intact. No writing or stains. It's a very sturdy book, but the edges are well-loved, and a couple of the corners are a bit cracked (see photos).
"Writer and activist Florence Given tells you how feminism is going to ruin your life (in the best way possible). This is a colorful illustrated primer on modern feminism for the Instagram generation, encouraging us to question the insidious narratives that hold us back from self-acceptance, self-love, and our own power. With her refreshingly audacious voice and unmistakable art style, Florence Given explores all corners of the conversation, from overcoming insecurity projection and the tendency to find comfort in other women's flaws, to how to recognize and fight against the male gaze and other toxic cultural baggage, and embrace body positivity. Women Don't Owe You Pretty is here to remind us that everyone is valuable just as they are."
I like to imagine that the previous owner kept this copy bouncing around in a bag wherever she went, and read through it again and again. I hope it helped her so much that she finally didn't need it anymore. 💗 At any rate, it's absolutely jam-packed with exactly the sort of take-no-bullshit advice that I wish I'd had access to in the '80s and '90s. It's only a shame that we need to relearn and fight for these truths with every new generation. 🫂
