Opinions

A Decade of Arguments, Criticism, and Minding Other People’s Business

By: Roxane Gay

Narrated by: Roxane Gay

From beloved and bestselling author Roxane Gay, “a strikingly fresh cultural critic” (Washington Post) comes an exhilarating collection of her essays on culture, politics, and everything in between.

Since the publication of the groundbreaking Bad Feminist and Hunger, Roxane Gay has continued to tackle big issues embroiling society—state-sponsored violence and mass shootings, women’s rights post-Dobbs, online disinformation, and the limits of empathy—alongside more individually personalized matters: can I tell my co-worker her perfume makes me sneeze? Is it acceptable to schedule a daily 8 am meeting? In her role as a New York Times opinion section contributor and the publication’s “Work Friend” columnist, she reaches millions of readers with her wise voice and sharp insights.

Opinions is a collection of Roxane Gay’s best nonfiction pieces from the past ten years. Covering a wide range of topics—politics, feminism, the culture wars, civil rights, and much more—with an all-new introduction in which she reflects on the past decade in America, this sharp, thought-provoking anthology will delight Roxane Gay’s devotees and draw new readers to this inimitable talent.

I’ve been wanting to read this book since the publication and i was dwelling around the idea of listening or reading it, then remembered a friend listened bad feminist on audible narrated from the author Roxane gay and told me it was magnificent. Well this book is also magnificent I love her voice and how she reads also love her work she has a way to write essays I haven’t found on any other author

Great Read!!!!

I loved it! Roxane Gay has one of those voices that is meant for audiobooks. I really enjoy her essays. They are always thought provoking, entertaining, and at times, humorous. I've read a few of her other audiobooks already, and they were all great as well. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading a great book!

I really enjoyed this book!

Your thoughts and opinions matter RG! I wasn’t sure about listening to a book titled Opinions, however, after the first story I was hooked! I also appreciate your honesty and valued your view on so many of the topics you spoke about. You even changed my opinion on a number of celebrities- thank you!

Pristine Writing.

Ms. Gay’s pen is marvelous and flows fluidly. My only knock is Her dialogue with celebrities and alignment with the left’s talking points.
