À propos de cet audio
Universally acclaimed, rapturously reviewed, winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for autobiography, and an instant New York Times best seller, Chanel Miller's breathtaking memoir "gives readers the privilege of knowing her not just as Emily Doe, but as Chanel Miller the writer, the artist, the survivor, the fighter" (The Wrap).
"I opened Know My Name with the intention to bear witness to the story of a survivor. Instead, I found myself falling into the hands of one of the great writers and thinkers of our time. Chanel Miller is a philosopher, a cultural critic, a deep observer, a writer's writer, a true artist. I could not put this phenomenal book down." (Glennon Doyle, number one New York Times best-selling author of Love Warrior and Untamed)
"Know My Name is a gut-punch, and in the end, somehow, also blessedly hopeful." (Washington Post)
She was known to the world as Emily Doe when she stunned millions with a letter. Brock Turner had been sentenced to just six months in county jail after he was found sexually assaulting her on Stanford's campus. Her victim impact statement was posted on BuzzFeed, where it instantly went viral - viewed by 11 million people within four days, it was translated globally and read on the floor of Congress; it inspired changes in California law and the recall of the judge in the case. Thousands wrote to say that she had given them the courage to share their own experiences of assault for the first time.
Now, she reclaims her identity to tell her story of trauma, transcendence, and the power of words. It was the perfect case, in many ways - there were eyewitnesses, Turner ran away, physical evidence was immediately secured. But her struggles with isolation and shame during the aftermath and the trial reveal the oppression victims face in even the best-case scenarios. Her story illuminates a culture biased to protect perpetrators, indicts a criminal justice system designed to fail the most vulnerable, and, ultimately, shines with the courage required to move through suffering and live a full and beautiful life.
Know My Name will forever transform the way we think about sexual assault, challenging our beliefs about what is acceptable and speaking truth to the tumultuous reality of healing. It also introduces listeners to an extraordinary writer, one whose words have already changed our world. Entwining pain, resilience, and humor, this memoir will stand as a modern classic.
Chosen as a Best Book of 2019 by The New York Times Book Review, The Washington Post, Time, Elle, Glamour, Parade, Chicago Tribune, Baltimore Sun, BookRiot

Informative
An important look into the side of the story that matters. I was apprehensive to read as so many reviews mentioned that she repeated herself a lot, but I'm glad I gave it a chance! Very informative, vulnerable and heartbreaking.

Chanel paved the way for the me too movement. Her story is painful, inspirational, shocking, disgraceful and IMPORTANT. I cried and laughed and felt ignited to stand up for what’s right.

Vulnerable and raw
Chanel's incredible writing was relatable and heartbreaking. She is incredibly vulnerable, and with that, she truly depicts what it is like to be a woman in the modern world. I highly recommend!

READ THIS
This is the most important book I’ve ever read.
Her writing is raw and eloquent. I wept and I raged. I felt both hopeless and hopeful, discouraged yet empowered. Chanel thank you for sharing your story.

Incredible
This book is a force. I wish everyone, every single person, would read it. It encompasses so much of this time in history and exposes the constructions that make the horrors and realities of traumatic stress possible. It resonates with me, but more importantly exposes to me the gaps in my own experience so I could more fully relate to other’s experiences. Her writing is exquisite, her voice is full and powerful. Chanel is a gift of such incredible measure it is no wonder that her life has moved mountains. I am honoured to have heard this story from her perspective and I wish everyone could move through life with the information she shares.
