Description
âœA deliciously dry, moody essay collectionâ?
about Americaâs obsession with violence against
women is âœa lyrical meditationâ? (Carina
Chocano, New York Times Book Review).In this
poignant collection, Alice Bolin examines iconic
American works from the essays of Joan Didion and
James Baldwin to Twin Peaks, Britney Spears,
and Serial, illuminating the widespread
obsession with women who are abused, killed, and
disenfranchised, and whose bodies (dead and
alive) are used as props to bolster
menâs stories. Smart and accessible, thoughtful
and heartfelt, Bolin investigates the
implications of our cultural fixations, and her
own role as a consumer and creator.Bolin
chronicles her life in Los Angeles, dissects the
Noir, revisits her own coming of age, and
analyzes stories of witches and werewolves, both
appreciating and challenging the narratives we
construct and absorb every day. Dead GirlsÂ
begins by exploring the trope of dead women in
fiction, and ends by interrogating the more
complex dilemma of living women â both the
persistent injustices they suffer and the
oppression that white women help
perpetrate.âœBracing and blazingly smart.â?
âMegan Abbott, Edgar Awardâwinning author ofÂ
You Will Know MeâœThe cultural criticism serves
to help us all think a little bit more about what
weâre consumingâand whoâs being damaged by
it.â? âEntertainment WeeklyâœA sharp-eyed
book of essays.â? âWashington PostâœWise and
wonderful.â? âRobin Wasserman, author ofÂ
Girls on FireâœEngrossing . . . eerily
enthralling, systematically on point, and quite
funny . . . An illuminating study on the role
women play in the media and in their own
lives.â? âKirkus Reviews (starred
review)âœSmart, thorough, and

urgent, Bolinâs essays are a force to be
reckoned with.â? âBooklist
