À propos de cet audio
Shrill is an uproarious memoir, a feminist rallying cry in a world that thinks gender politics are tedious and that women, especially feminists, can't be funny.
Coming of age in a culture that demands women be as small, quiet, and compliant as possible - like a porcelain dove that will also have sex with you - writer and humorist Lindy West quickly discovered that she was anything but.
From a painfully shy childhood in which she tried, unsuccessfully, to hide her big body and even bigger opinions; to her public war with stand-up comedians over rape jokes; to her struggle to convince herself, and then the world, that fat people have value; to her accidental activism and never-ending battle royale with internet trolls, Lindy narrates her life with a blend of humor and pathos that manages to make a trip to the abortion clinic funny and wring tears out of a story about diarrhea.
With inimitable good humor, vulnerability, and boundless charm, Lindy boldly shares how to survive in a world where not all stories are created equal and not all bodies are treated with equal respect, and how to weather hatred, loneliness, harassment, and loss, and walk away laughing. Shrill provocatively dissects what it means to become self-aware the hard way, to go from wanting to be silent and invisible to earning a living defending the silenced in all caps.

From the moment powerful men started falling to the #MeToo movement, the lamentations began: This is feminism gone too far, this is injustice, this is a witch hunt. In The Witches Are Coming, firebrand author of the New York Times best-selling memoir and now critically acclaimed Hulu TV series Shrill Lindy West turns that refrain on its head. You think this is a witch hunt? Fine. You've got one.

“It's not a diet, it's a lifestyle.” You've probably heard this phrase from any number of people in the wellness space. But as Christy Harrison reveals in her latest book, wellness culture promotes a standard of health that is often both unattainable and deeply harmful. The Wellness Trap delves into the persistent, systemic problems with that industry, offering insight into its troubling pattern of cultural appropriation and its destructive views on mental health, and shedding light on how a growing distrust of conventional medicine has led ordinary people to turn their backs on science.

Jes Baker burst onto the body positivity scene when she created her own ads mocking Abercrombie and Fitch for discriminating against all body types - a move that landed her on the Today show and garnered a loyal following for her raw, honest, and attitude-filled blog missives. Building on the manifesta power of Things, this memoir goes deeply into Jes' inner life, from growing up a fat girl to dating while fat. With material that will have listeners laughing and crying along with Jes' experience, this new book is a natural fit with her irreverent, open-book style.

Vivek Shraya has reason to be afraid. Throughout her life she's endured acts of cruelty and aggression for being too feminine as a boy and not feminine enough as a girl. In order to survive childhood, she had to learn to convincingly perform masculinity. As an adult, she makes daily compromises to steel herself against everything from verbal attacks to heartbreak. Now, with raw honesty, Shraya delivers an important record of the cumulative damage caused by misogyny, homophobia, and transphobia, releasing trauma from a body that has always refused to assimilate.

Started out sarcastic and a bit snarky, but, the meat of this book is perfection. I can't wait for future work from Lindy.

Love this audio book!!!
This book is amazing and I love that Lindy narrated it. I would love to say what I specifically love about it but it’s all just so awesome. I do really enjoy Hello I’m Fat though. Great listen and it makes it all that much better that Lindy narrated it.

Must read for men and women!
An important lesson in empathy, and how our actions do not occur in a vacuum. Well read and beautifully written. Lindy is so articulate in how she explains complex issues and yet she manages to do so in a way that is relatable and accessible to all. I wish I read this book in my teens! I wish our society would amplify the voices of women like her! We could learn so much, and avoid so much unecessary pain.

Must Listen
I must live under a rock, because I did not know who Lindy West was before listening to her book. Well, she is candid, funny, completely raw, and I think each and every woman will laugh and cry and totally fall in love with her, just as I did. Yes, it’s helpful for the HAES and body positive crew (which I hope someday soon will be everyone), but everyone will get some major takeaways from this read and hopefully start to realize the stigmatizing things happening in our culture are capable of changing. As someone with thin privilege, I especially appreciated her recounts of her struggles fighting fat stigma. If everyone listened to this book I think it could create a ripple of change among us. Everyone deserves equal treatment. Stories like Lindy’s, and the work she is doing, fill my heart with hope for a better world. Thank you, Lindy. We owe you so much for your brave crusade.

If you're a fat woman, you need this book.
This book is everything good.
Funny. Honest. Relatable. Validating.
Lindy West is an exceptional writer and fantastic narrator. If you grew up in a fat female body, you need to read this book... probably more than once.
Will undoubtedly re-listen.

Sharp, Intelligent & Witty
I was browsing Audible looking to listen to something that was short that I could enjoy in just one sitting. I listened the the sample and enjoyed listening to narrator’s voice. Narration can make or break an audiobook for me. I was not expecting the book to be as good as it is. I’d never heard of Lindy West before but now I will read any book she writes. She hits on some serious topics and the book is very thought provoking. I definitely recommend this book.
