Description

In this poetic memoir, Laurie Halse Anderson turns her signature voice—raw, incisive, and fiercely compassionate—toward the urgent work still unfinished since the #MeToo and #TimesUp moments. Written in free verse, she braids personal reflections and previously untold experiences with sharp cultural critique, moving from vulnerability to resolve as she challenges the silence that protects harm. The book is both a reckoning and a rallying cry: a call to listen, to speak out, and to demand accountability from individuals, institutions, and ourselves. With the same unflinching honesty that made her earlier work essential, Anderson offers a timely, timeless testament to survivors and to anyone finding the courage to name what’s been done—and to insist it must change.
