NOTES TO SELF - EMILIE PINE KARTONIERT (TB)

THE EXTRAORDINARY #1 BESTSELLER - a word-of-mouth literary phenomenon'Do not read this book in
public: it will make you cry' Anne Enright'Unsparing  formidable  raw. The kind of book you
want to give everyone' Irish Times'Complex  accessible  thoughtful... You will love these
essays' Pandora Sykes  The High Low'Fiercely feminist  fascinating. I have recommended this to
several people. And I'm doing the same here' Sunday Times 'Every line pulses with the pain and
joy and complexity of an extraordinary life' Mark O'Connell 'I am afraid of being the
disruptive woman. And of not being disruptive enough. I am afraid. But I am doing it anyway.'
In this dazzling debut  Emilie Pine speaks to the business of living as a woman in the 21st
century - its extraordinary pain and its extraordinary joy. Courageous  humane and
uncompromising  she writes with radical honesty on birth and death  on the grief of infertility
on caring for her alcoholic father  on taboos around female bodies and female pain  on sexual
violence and violence against the self. Devastatingly poignant and profoundly wise - and joyful
against the odds - Notes to Self offers a portrait not just of its author but of a whole
generation.
