Opis
A raw and lyrical exploration of the confining expectations of womanhood and, if we dare, what lies beyond those limitations, from a writer Roxane Gay calls 'vibrant and thoughtful.'
Across time and location, women were raised to be agreeableand "good." Hyper-visible as sexual objects but invisible as fullpeople. Living in a physical world created by men for men.Taking on the ultimate role of birth-giver and caretaker, yetseeing it remain an unsung act, even as it's a God-likecreation. Only in midlife did Nolan begin to realize she wascapable of living outside these cages of conditioning so lyly insidious that they're nearly invisible.Good Woman elegantly probes the knotty conditionsthemselves, the costs of adhering to them, and what happenswhen one refuses to comply. The twelve stunning andunforgettable essays blend memoir, reportage, and history tocreate a collection that is alternately bold, brash, andexplosive, and ravishingly tender, sensual, and joyous. Nolantakes aim at big and old ideas, and she does not miss. Hers is atestimony to witness and to savour.
