Good and Made: The Revolutionary Power of Women’s Anger
by rebecca Traister
non-Fiction
Good and Made
This resonant examination of women’s anger discusses how women’s anger has long been dismissed as irrational, hysterical, or dangerous – precisely because it is so powerful. Traister shows how women’s fury has often been the engine of political change—even when society has demanded that they suppress it. This book illuminates how anger and its costs are not equally permitted, even among women. While the tone confrontational, that is part of its purpose as an argument for the legitimacy—and the productive potential—of female rage.
