Legs Get Led Astray is a provocative collection of essays that vividly rockets the listener through one young woman's life. Chloe Caldwell beautifully and bluntly escorts you through her childhood dreams, her first loves, her most unguarded sexual exploits, bookstore crushes, babysitting jobs, heartbroken wanderlust, and the suicide of a lost lover.
Caldwell's writing remarkably explores the genre of personal non-fiction and has been featured in The Rumpus, The Faster Times, and Mr. Beller's Neighborhood, and is forthcoming in The Nervous Breakdown and Everyday Genius.

I'm Audible's first Editor-at-Large, the host of In Bed with Susie Bright -- and a longtime author, editor, journo, and bookworm. I listen to audio when I'm cooking, playing cards, knitting, going to bed, waking up, driving, and putting other people's kids to bed! My favorite audiobooks, ever, are: "True Grit" and "The Dog of the South."
"Blunt, Hilarious, Provocative: It's Chloe Caldwell"
Chloe Caldwell's gumption is infectious— from wanting to become a star on the Barney show, to delirious babysitting incidents, fateful bookstore crushes at the Strand, and falling in love. She's blunt, hilarious, and provocative.
Caldwell is a NorthWest Portland“It Girl” at the moment, and deserves the attention.
