Skip to product information
A keen, ardent celebration of unbridled female ambition in the work of Taylor Swift and Sylvia Plath.
In The Slicks, Maggie Nelson positions culture-dominating pop superstar Taylor Swift and feminist cult icon Sylvia Plath as twin hosts of the female urge toward wanting hard, working hard, and pouring forth―and as twinned targets of patriarchy’s ancient urge to disparage, trivialize, and discipline creative work by women rooted in autobiography and abundance.
A buoyant melding of popular culture and literary criticism, The Slicks is a captivating and unexpected essayistic assessment of two iconic female artists by one of the most revered and influential critics of her generation.
