| Summary |
A new selection of the most provocative, incendiary, and career-making pieces by bestselling author, essayist, political activist, and "veteran muckraker" ( The New Yorker ) Barbara Ehrenreich. A self-proclaimed "myth buster by trade," Barbara Ehrenreich has covered an extensive range of topics as a journalist and political activist, and is unafraid to dive into intellectual waters that others deem too murky. Now, Had I Known gathers the articles and excerpts from a long-ranging career that most highlight Ehrenreich's brilliance, social consciousness, and wry wit. From Ehrenreich's award-winning article "Welcome to Cancerland," published shortly after she was diagnosed with breast cancer, to her groundbreaking undercover investigative journalism in Nickel and Dimed , to her exploration of death and mortality in the New York Times bestseller, Natural Causes , Barbara Ehrenreich has been writing radical, thought-provoking, and worldview-altering pieces for over four decades. Her reviews have appeared in The New York Times Book Review , The Washington Post , The Atlantic Monthly , and the Los Angeles Times Book Review , among others, while her essays, op-eds and feature articles have appeared in The New York Times , Harper's Magazine , The New York Times Magazine , Time , The Wall Street Journal , and many more. Had I Known pulls from the vast and varied collection of one of our country's most incisive thinkers to create one must-have volume. |
