Moranifesto

De: Caitlin Moran

Narrado por: Joanna Neary

From the New York Times bestselling author of How to Be a Woman and Moranthology comes a collection of Caitlin Moran’s award-winning London Times columns that takes a clever, hilarious look at celebrities, society, and the wacky world we live in today—including three major new pieces exclusive to this book.

When Caitlin Moran sat down to choose her favorite pieces for her new book, she realized that they all shared a common theme—the same old problems and the same old ass-hats. Then she thought of the word ‘Moranifesto’, and she knew what she had to do…

Introducing every piece and weaving her writing together into a brilliant, seamless narrative—just as she did in Moranthology—Caitlin combines the best of her recent columns with lots of new writing unique to this book as she offers a characteristically fun and witty look at the news, celebrity culture, and society. Featuring strong and important pieces on poverty, the media, and class, Moranifesto also focuses on how socially engaged we’ve become as a society.

And of course, Caitlin is never afraid to address the big issues, such as Benedict Cumberbatch and duffel coats. Who else but Caitlin Moran—a true modern Renaissance woman—could deal with topics as pressing and diverse as the beauty of musicals, affordable housing, Daft Punk, and why the Internet is like a drunken toddler?

Covering everything from Hillary Clinton to UTIs, Caitlin’s manifesto is an engaging and mischievous rallying call for our times.

great collection, better because it's Read by the author

Had a great time listening, she makes me lol and think hard about issues that are dear to my heart and some i did not know i could empathize!

Another Optimistic Spin

I love this collection of stories & guided explanations via the author. It's an interesting format & I rather enjoyed it. Can't wait to read her next book!

Why?

Nothing against Ms. Neary at all, but why did Ms. Moran not narrate this? After the last two gut-busting, laugh til I cried audiobooks with the author's unique voice, this feels like less. Which is entirely unfair of me, but there we are once expectations have been set. Will give it a go and report back on it. UPDATE: If anyone other than the author had to read this, they chose a brilliant substitute for Ms. Moran. Ms. Neary is fantastic.

The author is such an innovative voice for women in the world today!

The author has written a bunch of things that I’d liked before, but as she gets older, she gets better. I believe that that what she says is true, and I recommend this book.

read/listen to this one!

Love this book so much! I want to recommend it to everyone! Entertaining, thoughtful, inspiring, real. Caitlin is brilliant. I'll listen to this over and over.
