Six Conversations We're Scared to Have - from the Guilty Feminist

di Deborah Frances-White (Autore)

Virago, 2025

A brave, witty and surprising intervention in the culture wars, by the bestselling author of The Guilty Feminist Deborah Frances-White grew up in a cult - and lately she's been feeling like she's back in one... In her new book, Deborah draws on her unique perspective - as an inclusive feminist, an agenda-setting comedian and as someone who was forbidden to think or speak freely as a young woman - to tackle the most controversial topics of our today. She presents six conversations that most of us are too scared to have, including: *Why we find it impossible to have conversations anymore *Does history have a right side? *Gender non-conformity *Free speech *Cancel culture *How we can find common ground? This book is a rallying cry and a breath of fresh air. Deborah argues that if we are to make real change in our society, we need to become skilled at asking difficult questions, reasoning and listening. We are understandably scared to have some of these conversations, but Deborah is even more scared of not having them. Conversation is human. Conversation is life. Are you ready to talk?
