All the Women in My Brain

A dazzling, darkly hilarious odyssey through modern womanhood from Emmy-nominated actress and writer Betty Gilpin.
Hailed as "a masterpiece of chaos" and "a tapestry of light and darkness, hilarity, and pathos," Betty Gilpin's debut collection fearlessly dissects the complexities of being a woman in the modern world.
From boarding school musings to the glossy cringe of Hollywood, Gilpin's essays are a wild ride through the female experience. With raw honesty and biting wit, she introduces us to the women in her brain - Blanche VonFuckery, Ingrid St. Rash, and a host of others - each taking turns at the wheel as Gilpin navigates love, liberation, and the pursuit of enough IMDB credits to taze the demons snapping at her ankles.
Gilpin's voice is fresh, funny, and unapologetically feminist. All the Women in My Brain is a rallying cry for any woman who's ever felt like she was more, or at least weirder, than the world expected. Gilpin "writes like an avenging angel," delivering a "raised eyebrow and a soul-scalpel" in this unforgettable debut that will leave you laughing, crying, and hungry for more.
