"An essential window into many of the hazard-strewn worlds younger women are living in right now."
(Margaret Atwood, Twitter)

With intolerance and inequality increasingly normalised by the day, it's more important than ever for women to share their experiences. We must hold the truth to account in the midst of sensationalism and international political turmoil. Nasty Women is a collection of essays, interviews and accounts on what it is to be a woman in the 21st century.
