About this Event

With a brash and stylish voice that implicates and confronts the reader, Emma Copley Eisenberg wades into the contradictions, joys, and violence of a modern world shaped by looking and watching, examining how our hungers can both hijack and crack open our lives.
“Spiky, acerbic, and utterly addictive . . . a book as provocative as it is lush, traversing everything from toxic beauty startups to viral sex tapes.”Playboy
