Commute: An Illustrated Memoir of Female Shame by Erin Williams
3.0
This is a stream of consciousness of a woman and how she feels she is represented in the world. Part of it is based on her commute back and forth to the office. Part of it is her thoughts on everything around her, and how women are assaulted with the gaze of men.
There is a little too much about how she gets ready in the morning. The beginning of the book is a bit drawn out.
But once you get past that, and she talks about all things women, about giving birth, about many bad dates, and about the way advertising features women's bodies.
It is a bit of stream of consiouoness about it, and if you can stand reading that way, you might find this enjoyable.
Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.
