A Complicated Woman : The Hotly Anticipated Literary Debut By Self Esteem

'An oracle for women' DOLLY ALDERTONSometimes when I drink wine out of a globulous glass with the thinnest of rims, blocking out the fact it's billed at 14 a pop, I think of baby Becky.Hair so blonde it's neon white, cheeks so chubby you can't see her eyes. What must she think right now? She must think she made it.We're a great big adult person.That was always the plan, right?In her extraordinary debut, with her trademark lyricism and razor-sharp wit, Ivor Novello Award-winning musician and artist Rebecca Lucy Taylor (aka SELF ESTEEM) takes us on a journey through womanhood - whatever the hell that means.Through the notes, lyrics and biting observational prose for which Taylor has become renowned, A Complicated Woman offers itself up as a subversive anti-Bible for any woman who has ever cracked under the weight of impossible expectation; who has done unto others the damage that has been wrought upon her; and who has discovered deep within herself a resilience that surprised her.A Complicated Woman is a cathartic scream of a book that gets to the heart of being a woman in the world today, and cements Taylor as one of the most exciting voices of her generation.

Ideal for readers interested in literature & poetry.
