The author of the international bestseller How to Be a Woman returns with another âhilarious neo-feminist manifestoâ (NPR) in which she reflects on parenting, middle-age, marriage, existential crisesâand, of course, feminism.
A decade ago, Caitlin Moran burst onto the scene with her instant bestseller, How to Be a Woman, a hilarious and resonant take on feminism, the patriarchy, and all things womanhood. Moranâs seminal book followed her from her terrible 13th birthday through adolescence, the workplace, strip-clubs, love, and beyondâand is considered the inaugural work of the irreverent confessional feminist memoir genre that continues to occupy a major place in the cultural landscape.
Since that publication, itâs been a glorious ten years for young women: Barack Obama loves Fleabag, and Dior make âFEMINISTâ t-shirts. However, middle-aged women still have some nagging, unanswered questions: Can feminists have Botox? Why isnât there such a thing as âMum Bodâ? Why do hangovers suddenly hurt so much? Is the camel-toe the new erogenous zone? Why do all your clothes suddenly hate you? Has feminism gone too far? Will your To Do List ever end? And WHOâS LOOKING AFTER THE CHILDREN?
As timely as it is hysterically funny, this memoir/manifesto will have readers laughing out loud, blinking back tears, and redefining their views on feminism and the patriarchy. More Than a Woman is a brutally honest, scathingly funny, and absolutely necessary take on the life of the modern womanâand one that only Caitlin Moran can provide.
What does it mean to be a woman when youâre suddenly juggling aging parents, sullen teenagers, and a body thatâs gone rogue? Humorous Essays on Midlife: From the indignity of a sudden wattle to the existential crisis of a hangover at forty, Caitlin Moran tackles the bigâand smallâquestions with her signature wit.A Frank Look at Marriage: Explore the hilarious realities of long-term relationships, including the absolute necessity of the âMaintenance Shagâ and why your partnerâs sneeze can become a declaration of war.The Unending To-Do List: A deep dive into the mental load, the invisible, unpaid work that keeps the fabric of society togetherâand the eternal question of WHOâS LOOKING AFTER THE CHILDREN?Parenting Teenagers: Navigate the battlefield of raising teenagers, from arguments over fishnet tights and social media to the heart-wrenching reality of supporting a child through a mental health crisis.
