Powerful, intelligent, and vital: One of the year's must-reads!


Hannah Nathanson, Features Director, ELLE, brings together a remarkable collection of essays in her book, Girl. Featuring contributions from Candice Carty-Williams, Jessica Horn, Ebele Okobi, Funmi Fetto, and Freddie Harrel, this thought-provoking and captivating read delves into the multifaceted experiences of being a black woman, a woman, a mother, and a global citizen in today's ever-evolving world.


In the spirit of Roxane Gay's Bad Feminist, but entirely its own, Girl offers a provocative, heart-wrenching, and often hilarious exploration of what it means to be black, a woman, a mother, and a global citizen in the ever-changing landscape of our times. While black women have never been more visible or publicly celebrated, the reality of everyday life remains a complex, nuanced, and contradictory experience.


Award-winning journalist and American in London, Kenya Hunt, weaves a tapestry of razor-sharp cultural observation through evocative and relatable stories. This book not only illuminates our current cultural moment but also transcends it, offering a profound understanding of the complexities and nuances of black womanhood and womanhood in general.


Through her powerful storytelling, Hunt invites readers to reflect on the societal pressures, expectations, and challenges that black women face, while also celebrating their resilience, strength, and beauty. Girl is a must-read for anyone seeking to expand their horizons, challenge their perspectives, and appreciate the diverse tapestry of human experiences.
