About this listen
'Honest, brave, and hilariously funny, this is the book on women I've been waiting for' Celia Walden
'Strimpel's challenge to the culture of victimhood and pessimism around young women is well made and worth serious thought' Rt Hon Kemi Badenoch MP, Leader of HM Opposition & Leader of the Conservative Party
'Zoe is a brilliant writer and this is an engaging and fascinating book. Like all the best journalists she dares to question the received thinking passed down to woman by society, in this case liberal feminism. Her ideas are clear, sharp and uncomfortable - every young woman should read it' Camilla Long
Women's freedom is in jeopardy. Misogyny is everywhere. Courtship, duty and marriage are dying phenomenons - nails in the coffin to female happiness. Our bodies are an inventory of pain and weakness. Evidently, it is a very bad time to be female.
Or so we're told.
In Good Slut, Zoe Strimpel examines the myths that submerge women in narratives of victimhood and fragility, instead offering a much-needed dose of realism. Because while women's agency is increasingly under threat by the return of 'traditional' values, fuelled by fear-mongering discourse from both the political left and right, it's unequivocally never been a better time to be a woman. It may be complex terrain, yet women's pain, injustices, experiences and achievements are taken more seriously now than ever before. What's more, the opportunities in free societies are endless: whether sexual freedom, bodily autonomy or financial independence, women can, should and will - if they desire - have it all.
Courageous, defiant and incisive in its approach, Good Slut argues that liberation - true liberation - comes not from fear or shame, but from making the most out of the intertwined forces of money, power, and, of course, sex. A fierce celebration of female agency and choice, it is a timely reminder to get back in touch with the joy and freedoms available to us - if only we dare to grasp it.©2026 Zoe Strimpel (P)2026 Little, Brown Book Group Limited
