Product Information
*** NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER*** ***BEST BOOKS OF 2018 SELECTION BY*** * WASHINGTON POST * People * NPR * ESQUIRE * ELLE * WIRED * REFINERY 29 * "In a year when issues of gender and sexuality dominated the national conversation, no one shaped that exchange more than Rebecca Traister. Her wise and provocative columns helped make sense of a cultural transformation."--National Magazine Award Citation, 2018 "The most brilliant voice on feminism in this country."--Anne Lamott, author of Bird by Bird From Rebecca Traister, the New York Times bestselling author of All the Single Ladies comes a vital, incisive exploration into the transformative power of female anger and its ability to transcend into a political movement. In the year 2018, it seems as if women's anger has suddenly erupted into the public conversation. But long before Pantsuit Nation, before the Women's March, and before the #MeToo movement, women's anger was not only politically catalytic--but politically problematic. The story of female fury and its cultural significance demonstrates the long history of bitter resentment that has enshrouded women's slow rise to political power in America, as well as the ways that anger is received when it comes from women as opposed to when it comes from men. With eloquence and fervor, Rebecca tracks the history of female anger as political fuel--from suffragettes marching on the White House to office workers vacating their buildings after Clarence Thomas was confirmed to the Supreme Court. Here Traister explores women's anger at both men and other women; anger between ideological allies and foes; the varied ways anger is perceived based on its owner; as well as the history of caricaturing and delegitimizing female anger; and the way women's collective fury has become transformative political fuel--as is most certainly occurring today. She deconstructs society's (and the media's) condemnation of female emotion (notably, rage) and the impact of their resulting repercussions. Highlighting a double standard perpetuated against women by all sexes, and its disastrous, stultifying effect, Traister's latest is timely and crucial. It offers a glimpse into the galvanizing force of women's collective anger, which, when harnessed, can change history.

Reviews
"A trenchant analysis... Traister argues forcefully that women are an 'oppressed majority in the United States,' kept subjugated partly by racial divisions among the group. Traister closes with a reminder to women not to lose sight of their anger--even when things improve slightly and 'the urgency will fade... if you yourself are not experiencing' injustice or look away from it." -- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY (STARRED REVIEW) "Timely and absorbing, Traister's fiery tome is bound to attract attention and discussion. Traister takes a deep dive into the current political climate to explore the contemporary and historical relationship women have with anger and the ramifications of expressing and suppressing feminine rage. Traister uses...startlingly obvious double standard[s] to explore how attaching negative connotations to women's anger has always been used to silence and dismiss them." -- BOOKLIST (STARRED REVIEW) " Good and Mad is Rebecca Traister's ode to women's rage--an extensively researched history and analysis of its political power. It is a thoughtful, granular examination: Traister considers how perception (and tolerance) of women's anger shifts based on which women hold it (*cough* white women *cough*) and who they direct it toward; she points to the ways in which women are shamed for or gaslit out of their righteous emotion. And she proves, vigorously, why it's so important for women to own and harness their rage--how any successful revolution depends on it ." -- BUZZFEED "Traister's reported manifesto on feminism after Trump...offers a forceful...inventory of the ways in which women's anger in the public sphere is exaggerated, pathologized, and used to discredit them in a manner unimaginable for men." -- BOOKFORUM "Every fifty years since the French Revolution there's been an uprising on behalf of women's rights--we're in the middle of one right now--and each time around a fresh chorus of voices is heard, making the same righteous bid for social and political equality, only with more force and more eloquence than the time before. Among today's strongest voices is the one that belongs to Rebecca Traister. Deeply felt and richly researched, her new book, Good and Mad , is one of the best accounts I have read of the cumulative anger women feel, coming up against their centuries-old subordination. Read it!" --VIVIAN GORNICK "Rebecca Traister has me convinced in this deftly and powerfully argued book that there will be no 21st century revolution, until women once again own the power of their rage. Righteous fury leaps off every page of this book, with example after example, from the present and the past, coaxing, chiding, and indeed reminding us, that the political uses of women's anger have been good for America. As I read, my blood started pumping, my fist tightened and my spirit said, "hell yeah! We aren't going down without a fight." Women's anger rightly placed and soundly focused can be good for America, once again. In fact, it is essential. Tell the truth: We're all sick and tired of being sick and tired. It's high time we got good and mad." --DR. BRITTNEY COOPER, author of Eloquent Rage, ADVANCE PRAISE for GOOD AND MAD by REBECCA TRAISTER "Every fifty years since the French Revolution there's been an uprising on behalf of women's rights--we're in the middle of one right now--and each time around a fresh chorus of voices is heard, making the same righteous bid for social and political equality, only with more force and more eloquence than the time before.
