About this audiobook

When fifty-three percent of white women voted for Donald Trump and ninety-four percent of black women voted for Hillary Clinton, how can women unite in Trump's America? Nasty Women includes inspiring essays from a diverse group of talented women writers who seek to provide a broad look at how we got here and what we need to do to move forward. Nasty Women features essays by Rebecca Solnit, Cheryl Strayed, Sarah Hepola, Nicole Chung, Katha Pollitt, Jill Filipovic, Samantha Irby, Randa Jarrar, Sarah Hollenbeck, Meredith Talusan, and Sarah Jaffe, among others.

Ratings and reviews

This isn't well crafted analysis or deft wit, it's pure raw emotion and anger with no sensibility. None of these women know the meaning of repression or pain but all feel triggered enough to scream. Nothing will change unless logic can defy oir most intense banal desires.
