Girl on Girl: How Pop Culture Turned a Generation of Women Against Themselves
Sophie Gilbert
Most Anticipated in New York Times, Harpers Bazaar, Stylist, Marie Claire and Washington Post. Cosmetic surgeries at an all-time high, Ozempic is bringing back 'heroin chic' and TikTok trad-wives are on the rise - after four waves of feminism, what went wrong? In this blazing, razor-sharp takedown of popular culture in the twenty-first century, Girl on Girl turns 90s and 00s nostalgia on its head, and shows how the media of that era repackaged the feminist movement as a containable, commodifiable (and hugely successful) product: 'Girl Power'. From the Spice Girls to the Kardashians, to #GirlBoss and OnlyFans, Pulitzer Prize-finalist Sophie Gilbert illustrates how the cultural forces of the last few decades have systematically shaped - and warped - women's relationships with themselves and other women. Relatable, wide-ranging and covering TV, film, music, journalism and the internet, Girl on Girl asks how did we get here, and what lies ahead. 'A captivating must-read for anyone who wants to understand how and why misogyny is as powerful a force as ever.' - Kate Manne, author of Down Girl.
