Descriere magazin:
A New York Times Editor\'s Choice selection also Shortlisted for the Museum of African American History Stone Book Award. One of today\'s most intrepid public intellectuals shares her smart, humorous, and strikingly original thoughts on race, beauty, money, and more. FINALIST FOR THE 2019 NATIONAL BOOK AWARD Named a notable book of 2019 by the New York Times Book Review , Chicago Tribune , Time , and The Guardian As featured by The Daily Show , NPR , PBS , CBC , Time , VIBE , Entertainment Weekly , Well-Read Black Girl , and Chris Hayes, incisive, witty, and provocative essays ( Publishers Weekly ) by one of the most bracing thinkers on race, gender, and capitalism of our time (Rebecca Traister) Thick is sure to become a classic. -- The New York Times Book Review In eight highly praised treatises on beauty, media, money, and more, Tressie McMillan Cottom--award-winning professor and acclaimed author of Lower Ed --is unapologetically thick deemed thick where I should have been thin, more where I should have been less, McMillan Cottom refuses to shy away from blending the personal with the political, from bringing her full self and voice to the fore of her analytical work. Thick transforms narrative moments into analyses of whiteness, black misogyny, and status-signaling as means of survival for black women ( Los Angeles Review of Books ) with writing that is as deft as it is amusing (Darnell L. Moore). This transgressive, provocative, and brilliant (Roxane Gay) collection cements McMillan Cottom\'s position as a public thinker capable of shedding new light on what the personal essay can do. She turns her chosen form into a showcase for her critical dexterity, investigating everything from Saturday Night Live , LinkedIn, and BBQ Becky to sexual violence, infant mortality, and Trump rallies. Collected in an indispensable volume that speaks to the everywoman and the erudite alike, these unforgettable essays never fail to be painfully honest and gloriously affirming and hold a mirror to your soul and to that of America (Dorothy Roberts).
