Description
"A dauntless and harrowing indictment of patriarchal violence." --Publishers Weekly In Everything I Never Wanted to Know, Christine Hume confronts the stigma and vulnerability of women's bodies in the US. She explores bodily autonomy and sexual assault alongside the National Sex Offender Registry in order to invoke not solutions but a willingness to complicate our ideas of justice and defend every human's right to be treated like a member of the community. Feminist autobiography threads into historical narrative and cultural criticism about the Victorian-era Frozen Charlotte doll; the Nylon Riots of the 1940s; the movie Halloween; Larry Nassar, who practiced in Hume's home state of Michigan; and other material. In these reflections on sexuality, gender, criminality, and violence, Hume asks readers to reconsider what we have collectively normalized and how we are each complicit, writing through the darkness of what we don't want to see, what we'd rather not believe, and what some of us have long tried to forget.EXTRA 10 % discount with code: EXTRA
