'Women are told, from birth, that it's our job to be small: physically small, small in our presence, and small in our impact on the world. I want to obliterate that expectation...'
Guardian columnist Lindy West wasn't always loud. It's difficult to believe she was once a teen who wanted nothing more than to be invisible. Fortunately for women everywhere, she found her voice. In Shrill: Notes from a Loud Woman, Lindy reveals the obstacles and misogyny she's had to overcome to make herself heard, in a society that doesn't believe women (especially fat women and feminists) can ever be funny.
Going against the grain is an act of bravery and sometimes the brave need armour. We're giving away a signed copy of Shrill and £100 of MAC Cosmetics vouchers to one lucky winner. 10 runners-up will receive a signed copy of the book.
To enter to win this empowering prize, simply fill the form below. This competition will end on Thursday 23rd June 2016. Please see our terms and conditions here.
