When you look at a woman, who do you see?
About this event
Join us to celebrate the launch of a new book by Riposte editor Danielle Pender.
Watching Women & Girls is a collection of twelve short stories that explore the experience of being watched from different women's perspectives.
A wedding day brings back memories of sisterhood and betrayals; a motorway service station burger bar is the site of explosive violence, but also strange bonds; a trip home forces a reminder of a life-changing, lost friendship; a woman confronts her own infidelity; an artist celebrates a life spent in observation.
This debut collection movingly explores how women and girls are looked at, look at one another, and look at themselves, and how living as an object can shape their passions, fears, and joys. With a clear eye and dark humour, Danielle Pender considers sex, parenting, grief and class as lenses for the ways in which the world watches women — and how women are always watching back.
Come and join us in the 100 Room (rooftop) of the 100 Shoreditch Hotel for drinks and your chance to be the first to get your hands on the book!
You can also pre-order the book here and here if you'd prefer to have it arrive at your doorstep.
