Low road forever : & other essays / Tara Thorne. by Thorne, Tara. Nimbus Publishing, 2022. Call #: 819.46 T511L Subjects Canadian essays -- 21st century. ISBN:  9781774711194 (pbk.) Description:  197 p. ; 19 cm. Summary:  "A self-proclaimed 'gay feminist harpy since before it was cool,' Tara Thorne is situated somewhere between the sharp-eyed urban commentary of Nora Ephron and ribald cultural analysis of Lindy West. In her debut book of essays, the Halifax-based filmmaker, arts critic, and recovering journalist gives readers her unvarnished take on the films and music that made her a feminist, how the #MeToo reckoning led her to write a misandrist vigilante film, what it's like being the only woman in a band, and the snarky tweet that made her lose her position as CBC Radio's arts and culture columnist. Alongside are musings on coming out later in life, remaining resolutely child-free, and why she's decided to step back from being professional to the point of erasure: after two decades, it's time to take the low road. With the cranky forthrightness of Fran Lebowitz in 'Pretend It's a City,' Thorne's voice is both self-assured and deeply self-effacing as she exposes the light haze of misogyny that hangs over us all to find what's funny, what's true, and what needs to be said." --Back cover.
