{"product_id":"girls-interrupted-lisa-whittington-hill-9781550656329","title":"Girls, Interrupted: How Pop Culture Is Failing Women","description":"The past decade has seen a rise in documentaries, memoirs and podcasts that revisit the legacies of women wronged by pop culture. With movements like #MeToo and #TimesUp, challenging long-standing narratives around female celebrities, it's no surprise so many believe the representation of women in the media has improved. In her scathingly witty collection of essays, \u003ci\u003eGirls, Interrupted\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003cb\u003eLisa Whittington-Hill\u003c\/b\u003e argues otherwise. Pop culture's treatment of women, writes Whittington-Hill, is still marked by misogyny and misunderstanding. From the gender bias in celebrity memoir coverage to problematic pop culture portrayals of middle-aged women and the sexist pressure on female pop stars to constantly reinvent themselves, \u003ci\u003eGirls, Interrupted\u003c\/i\u003e critically examines how mainstream media keeps failing women and explores what we can do to fix it. A work of searing relevance, this candid and often cathartic debut marks Whittington-Hill as a cultural critic of the first rank.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lisa Whittington-Hill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1550656325\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781550656329\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vehicule Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/11\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.40h x 4.88w x 0.63d","brand":"Lisa Whittington-Hill","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44202057400575,"sku":"9781550656329","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b44509b6-eb62-4966-963d-2a8fa7160faa.jpg?v=1691492977","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/girls-interrupted-lisa-whittington-hill-9781550656329","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
