From the New York Times bestselling author of How to Be a Woman and Moranthology comes a collection of Caitlin Moran's award-winning London Times columns that takes a clever, hilarious look at celebrities, society, and the wacky world we live in today-including three major new pieces exclusive to this book.
When Caitlin Moran sat down to choose her favorite pieces for her new book, she realized that they all shared a common theme-the same old problems and the same old ass-hats. Then she thought of the word 'Moranifesto', and she knew what she had to do...
Introducing every piece and weaving her writing together into a brilliant, seamless narrative-just as she did in Moranthology-Caitlin combines the best of her recent columns with lots of new writing unique to this book as she offers a characteristically fun and witty look at the news, celebrity culture, and society. Featuring strong and important pieces on poverty, the media, and class, Moranifesto also focuses on how socially engaged we've become as a society.
And of course, Caitlin is never afraid to address the big issues, such as Benedict Cumberbatch and duffel coats. Who else but Caitlin Moran-a true modern Renaissance woman-could deal with topics as pressing and diverse as the beauty of musicals, affordable housing, Daft Punk, and why the Internet is like a drunken toddler?
Covering everything from Hillary Clinton to UTIs, Caitlin's manifesto is an engaging and mischievous rallying call for our times.
In her unapologetic Moranifesto, Caitlin Moran tackles the absurd and the essential with her signature working-class voice:
- Political Commentary for Normal People: From Margaret Thatcher's legacy to the Syrian refugee crisis, Moran applies her hilarious, no-bullshit logic to the issues we're told are too complicated for us.
- Celebrity Culture: Why we must defend hipsters, what it's like getting drunk with Benedict Cumberbatch, and a deep dive into the unifying power of David Bowie.
- Modern Feminism: Tackling everything from high heels and UTIs to abortion rights and online harassment with the raw honesty that made How to Be a Woman a global phenomenon.
- The Absurdity of Everyday Life: Discover why printers are evil, the life-altering importance of bacon, and why the internet is basically a drunken toddler.
