Locker Room Talk: Women in Private Spaces

by Michelle Filkins (Editor), Margret Aldrich (Editor)

In LOCKER ROOM TALK, we listen in on the epic and ordinary moments that happen when women are together. Subverting the traditional idea of "locker room talk," this collection illuminates the conversations women share with family, friends, and strangers, whether at the sinks of a nightclub ladies' room, on a bus heading to the Women's March, or in the kitchen of an elder relative. Cumulatively, they reveal the myriad ways women care for themselves, each other, their communities, and our world.

I got two pages into this and was almost crying on the train. Reading all about women taking care of each other, with so many of the stories and writers being based in Minnesota, was the perfect way to wrap up what I've been doing this summer. I need to read more stuff like this

3.5 Stars.

It’s an anthology so some pieces are better than others.
