The Power Notebooks Audiobook (Free)

Katie Roiphe, lifestyle writer and author of The Morning After, stocks a timely mixture of memoir, feminist analysis, and exploration in famous female writers’ lives, in a bold, essential debate of how solid women encounter their power.

Told in a series of notebook entries, Roiphe weaves her often fraught personal experiences with divorce, single motherhood, and human relationships with insights into the lives and loves of famous authors such as Sylvia Plath and Simone de Beauvoir. She dissects the way she and various other ordinary, powerful females possess subjugated their very own power again and again, and she probes brilliantly on the complicated, uncomfortable question of why.

In these informal musings and notes, Roiphe delves into treacherous, largely untalked about, contradictions of contemporary womanhood, going where few writers dare. THE ENERGY Notebooks is usually Roiphe’s most vital, thought provoking, and psychologically intimate work yet.
