bobthebookerer's review against another edition
5.0
Having loved Hirsch's 'Brit-ish', I was delighted to see that her new book picked up on similar ideas and took them further, acting as a wise and insightful book on the ways that we move through the world.
Mining through her family history, and looking to the future, Hirsch walks the reader through a set of personal and thoughtful reflections on what it means to give yourself to the world, whether capitalism or your family, what it means to wear certain styles of clothing and hair, and what it means to resist the received ideas of what is 'correct.'
She is a writer who I always find deeply engaging for the ways that she does not need to find a concrete answer to be satisfied that the journey was worth it.
I received a digital copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
