Description: | Select Guide Rating In this instalment of the FUTURESseries, comedian and activist Grace Campbell traverses the shifting landscape of contemporary masculinity, and speculates about how it might look in twenty years time Where and who do we want to be? How might we get there? What might happen if we stay on our current course? Comedian, writer and activist Grace Campbell was born into a political environment that suggested only aggressive, dominant men – like her father Alistair Campbell – were allowed power. Seeing this, she decided that if she wanted to be powerful she had to be like him, a decision that baffled the boys she grew up with. This brief but mighty book is one of five that comprise the first set of FUTURES essays. Each standalone book presents the author''s original vision of a singular aspect of the future which inspires in them hope or reticence, optimism or fear. Read individually, these essays will inform, entertain and challenge. Together, they form a picture of what might lie ahead, and ask the reader to imagine how we might make the transition from here to there, from now to then. |
