Fast Funny Women

Productinformatie

75 women writers, ages 20 to 89, were invited by editor Gina Barreca to make a party out of their life’s most unnerving, challenging, illuminating, desperate, and hilarious moments. You know many of these brilliant women, but you’ve never heard them like this! With new works commissioned for the book from:

• NYT Bestseller and member of the American Academy of Poets
• Pulitzer-Prize winner
• NYT bestseller graphic artist
• New Yorker staff cartoonist
• Commander of the British Empire
• bestselling author of Love, Loss, and What I Wore
• Sylvia creator
• stand-up comics

And many more! Political campaigners, devoted teachers, lousy daughters, good mothers, would-be nuns, admired sportswriters, grad-school-wanna-bes, revenge-driven sisters, frustrated roommates, body-fluid-sorting professionals, lace-loving fashion mavens, intrepid daters, hungry lovers, justice-seeking nasty-women, ACE wedding celebrants, trapped wives, and women with all kinds of ammunition tell their stories—and their stories are all under 750 words.
