She then skyrocketed to the mainstream with Bad Feminist, a series of biting and intelligent essays exploring what it means to be a woman and a feminist.īut now what Roxane Gay brings us is Hunger, a memoir so beautifully written that you won’t want to put it down, but so raw and painful that you’ll have to.
She brought us a series of short stories in Difficult Women. Gay had brought us An Untamed State, a novel of sexual violence, race, and privilege.
The first time I read something by Roxane Gay, it was (like many people) her best-selling essay collection, Bad Feminist.
