 THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

'Breathes life into conversations about feminism' PHOEBE WALLER-BRIDGE

'Very funny, very clever, very thoughtful and very relevant' DOLLY ALDERTON

Why do we find it so hard to say 'No'?
How can feminism be more inclusive?
What can rom-coms tell us about taking charge?

The Guilty Feminist will challenge you, reassure you and empower you to see the world differently.

From inclusion to intersectionality, #MeToo to men's rights, rom-coms to pornography, Deborah Frances-White tackles urgent questions for the modern woman. Featuring interviews with activists, businesswomen and all-round inspirations, The Guilty Feminist examines how women can abandon their guilt, say No (when they mean it), say Yes (when they want to), and to change the world - and ourselves - for the better.

Includes interviews with Jessamyn Stanley * Zoe Coombs Marr * Susan Wokoma * Phoebe Waller-Bridge * Hannah Gadsby * Reubs Walsh * Bisha K. Ali * Becca Bunce * Mo Mansfield * Leyla Hussein * Amika George

Critic reviews

This really is the "everything you have always wanted to know about feminism but were afraid to ask" manual. From a mind as lucid and witty as it is kind and empathetic comes essential reading for the planet (Emma Thompson)

I listen to the podcast so thought there might not be much new but I was wrong it explains feminism in a real way from start to finish... has changed the way I feel and think and hopefully act. Thank you Deborah!!!!

Loving this!

great book, accessible history and lots of interviews from modern day feminists. Funny, informative and eye opening in parts. The only thing that annoyed me was the authors accents when reading other people's parts but this is a minor thing and I still enjoyed the book.

amazing

Absolutely fantastic book for any person wanting to develop themselves. I wish they taught it in all senior schools. For boys and girls. Brilliant!

Every women should read this!

This is one of the most important Feminist texts of our time. Not just because of it's inclusivity and intersectional approach but because it teases apart the paradoxes many modern people who identify as Feminist experience.

If you are a huge fan of the Guilty Feminist podcast or you have never heard of it, this book will inspire, intrigue and excite you.

Outstanding. Modern Feminism at it's best.
