Beschreibung
An unmissable essay from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Don't Touch My Hair and What White People Can Do Next
'A magnificent text' KATY HESSEL
'This is so sharp, and funny, and will be so generously liberating for so many - read it!' KATHERINE RUNDELL
'A must-read' PSYCHOLOGIES
For too long, beauty has been entangled in the forces of patriarchy and capitalism: objectification, shame, control, competition and consumerism. We need to find a way to do beauty differently.
This radical, deeply personal and empowering essay points to ways we can all embrace our unruly beauty and enjoy our magnificent, disobedient bodies.
'This call to joyful disobedience is proof that Dabiri is one of our most important thinkers and writers ... Fresh, new and important' IRISH TIMES
'Radical, incisive, thoughtful ... I can't recommend enough' VICKY SPRATT
