Synopsis
With characteristic honesty, lyricism, and insight, acclaimed author Melissa Febos examines the forces that shape girls and the adults they become. When her body started to change at eleven years old, Melissa Febos immediately understood that her meaning to other people had changed with it. By her teens, she had defined herself accordingly-by outside expectations. Over time, she questioned the stories she'd been told about being female, asking why they had so devalued her personal safety, happiness, and freedom. Blending investigative reporting, memoir, and scholarships, Febos charts how she and others like her have reframed the narrative, reimagined relationships, and made room for the grief, power, and pleasure women have long been taught to deny. This is a philosophical treatise, an anthem, and a searing study of the transitions into and away from girlhood, toward a chosen self.

A wise and brilliant guide to transforming the self and our society. In her powerful new book, critically acclaimed author Melissa Febos examines the narratives women are told about what it means to be female and what it takes to free oneself from them. When her body began to change at eleven years old, Febos understood immediately that her meaning to other people had changed with it. By her teens, she defined herself based on these perceptions and by the romantic relationships she threw herself into headlong. Over time, Febos increasingly questioned the stories she'd been told about herself and the habits and defenses she'd developed over years of trying to meet others' expectations. The values she and so many other women had learned in girlhood did not prioritize their personal safety, happiness, or freedom, and she set out to reframe those values and beliefs. Blending investigative reporting, memoir, and scholarship, Febos charts how she and others like her have reimagined relationships and made room for the anger, grief, power, and pleasure women have long been taught to deny. Written with Febos' characteristic precision, lyricism, and insight, Girlhood is a philosophical treatise, an anthem for women, and a searing study of the transitions into and away from girlhood, toward a chosen self., A gripping set of essays about the forces that shape girls and the adults they become. A wise and brilliant guide to transforming the self and our society.
