Download Trainwreck: The Women We Love to Hate, Mock, and Fear, and Why AudioBook Free
She's everywhere you go once you begin looking on her behalf: the trainwreck. She's Britney Spears shaving her brain, Whitney Houston declaring "split is whack", and Amy Winehouse dying before millions. However the trainwreck is also as old (so that as significant) as feminism itself. From Mary Wollstonecraft - who, for decades after her death, was more well-known for her illegitimate child and suicide endeavors than for A Vindication of the Privileges of Woman - to Charlotte Brontë, Billie Holiday break, Sylvia Plath, and even Hillary Clinton, Sady Doyle's Trainwreck dissects a centuries-old trend and asks what it means now, in a time whenever we have unprecedented usage of stars and civilians as well so when women are pushing harder than ever before against the restrictions of what it means to "behave". Where does these women come from? What exactly are their offences? And exactly what does it signify for ordinary people? For an age group when any form of self-expression can be the one that ends you, Sady Doyle's audiobook is really as fierce and intelligent as it is funny and compassionate - an important, well-timed feminist anatomy of the female trainwreck.
