GOOD READ

For Frieze, Jessica Hopper examines the essays collected in 2017 book Under My Thumb: Songs That Hate Women And The Women That Love Them.

"More than a book about music’s sexist history, this is a book about women carving an ornate space for themselves within music out of necessity; their willingness to tangle with these issues is a testimony to their love of music, and the lengths women must go to find some version of themselves reflected in it."

Thanks for listening!
