“Roxane Gay is so great at weaving the intimate and personal with what is most bewildering and upsetting at this moment in culture. She is always looking, always thinking, always passionate, always careful, always right there.” — Sheila Heti, author of How Should a Person Be?
A New York Times Bestseller

A collection of essays spanning politics, criticism, and feminism from one of the most-watched cultural observers of her generation
In these funny and insightful essays, Gay takes us through the journey of her evolution as a woman (Sweet Valley High) of color (The Help) while also taking readers on a ride through culture of the last few years (Girls, Django in Chains) and commenting on the state of feminism today (abortion, Chris Brown). The portrait that emerges is not only one of an incredibly insightful woman continually growing to understand herself and our society, but also one of our culture.
Bad Feminist is a sharp, funny, and spot-on look at the ways in which the culture we consume becomes who we are, and an inspiring call-to-arms of all the ways we still need to do better, coming from one of our most interesting and important cultural critics.

Greatly written and read. I liked that is witty and funny as well as informative about inequity and oppression. Strongly recommend for good start with feminist literature. 💜

Idk why, but I have a strong feeling that it's a first book of a freshman student... I really hope it's just my pov at this one book, and obv can be wrong about the author herself, coz she seems really great and if someone wants to kinda get to know her it's a really good choice! Really! it might be also a good start for going from TV to feminism books, but for some kind of getting to know more about a subject, it might be not enough
