Pledged by Alexandra Robbins
This New York Times bestseller takes the reader behind closed doors to see what really goes on in America's sororities. In Pledged, bestselling author Alexandra Robbins goes undercover to expose the dark side of collegiate sisterhood - the psychological abuse, hazing rituals and widespread body image disorders - while at the same time introducing us to many of the intelligent and successful women within its ranks. The result is a compelling sociological and cultural exploration of the powerful influences that these organisations wield of American girls today.Alexandra Robbins is the author of four New York Times bestsellers, including Pledged and The Geeks Shall Inherit the World, for which she won the prestigious 2014 John Bartlow Martin Prize for Public Interest Magazine Journalism. She's written for The New Yorker, Vanity Fair, The New York Times, and other publications, and she's appeared on 60 Minutes and The Colbert Report, among others.
