HAPPILY NEVER AFTER: THE FEMININE URGE TO STAGE A RECKONING

In the bittersweet You Could Make This Place Beautiful: A Memoir, poet MAGGIE SMITH explores the disintegration of her marriage and her renewed commitment to herself, ultimately reckoning with contemporary womanhood and the historical power dynamics that persist even in many progressive homes. In We Are Too Many: A Memoir [Kind of], HANNAH PITTARD recalls a decade’s worth of unforgettable conversations, beginning with the one in which she discovers her husband has been having sex with her charismatic best friend. Blending fact and fiction, Pittard takes stock of universal experiences – from the depths of female rage to the heartbreaking ways we inevitably outgrow certain people.
