{"product_id":"witches-are-coming-book-lindy-west-9780316449861","title":"The Witches Are Coming","description":"\u003cb\u003eIn this wickedly funny cultural critique, the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author of the critically acclaimed memoir and Hulu series Shrill exposes misogyny in the #MeToo era.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eThis is a witch hunt. We're witches, and we're hunting you.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e From the moment powerful men started falling to the #MeToo movement, the lamentations began: this is feminism gone too far, this is injustice, this is a witch hunt. In \u003ci\u003eThe Witches Are Coming\u003c\/i\u003e, Lindy West, turns that refrain on its head. You think this is a witch hunt? Fine. You've got one.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In a laugh-out-loud, incisive cultural critique, West extolls the world-changing magic of truth, urging readers to reckon with dark lies in the heart of the American mythos, and unpacking the complicated, and sometimes tragic, politics of not being a white man in the twenty-first century. She tracks the misogyny and propaganda hidden (or not so hidden) in the media she and her peers devoured growing up, a buffet of distortions, delusions, prejudice, and outright bullsh*t that has allowed white male mediocrity to maintain a death grip on American culture and politics--and that delivered us to this precarious, disorienting moment in history.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e We cannot understand how we got here,--how the land of the free became Trump's America--without examining the chasm between who we are and who we think we are, without fact-checking the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves and each other. The truth can transform us; there is witchcraft in it. Lindy West turns on the light.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50124970787089,"sku":"CIN0316449865A","price":5.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50348044747025,"sku":"CIN0316449865G","price":5.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50923473764625,"sku":"CIN0316449865VG","price":6.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51001062654225,"sku":"NIN9780316449861","price":18.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51498584277265,"sku":"GOR012565807","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0316449865.jpg?v=1751038687","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/witches-are-coming-book-lindy-west-9780316449861","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
