"When, in my twenties, I came out to my parents as a lesbian, I became an object of their disgust." In this hybrid memoir, novelist Stephanie Grant works to make sense of three generations of female self-disgust in her family while considering how it challenges both the American ideal of equality and our real-life experiences of intimacy. Disgust: A Memoir is funny, tender, and rigorous in its exploration of how the most difficult emotion functions both in our private lives and our collective imaginations.
This Workbook will support and motivate students to reach their full potential with targeted questions and support.
