Sometimes she's the life of the party; other times she's the center of gossip. She's the unruly woman, and she's on eof the most provocative, powerful forms of womanhood today. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThere have been unruly women for as long as there have been boundaries of what constitutes acceptable \"feminine\" behavior, but there's evidence that she's on the rise--more visible and less easily dismissed. In \u003ci\u003eToo Fat, Too Slutty, Too Loud\u003c\/i\u003e, Anne Helen Petersen uses the lens of \"unruliness\" to explore the ascension of contemporary pop culture powerhouses, from Serena Williams to Kim Kardashian to Hillary Clinton. Petersen explores why the public loves to love (and hate) these controversial figures, each of who has been conceived as \"too\" something: too queer, too strong, too honest, too old, too pregnant, too shrill, too much. With its brisk, incisve analysis, \u003ci\u003eToo Fat, Too Slutty, Too Loud\u003c\/i\u003e is a conversation-starting book on what makes and breaks famous women today. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Must-read list.\"\u003cb\u003e--\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eEntertainment Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNamed one of \u003ci\u003eCosmopolitan\u003c\/i\u003e's \"Books You Won't Be Able to Put Down This Summer\" \u003cbr\u003eSelected as one of Amazon's \"Best Books of the Month\"\u003cbr\u003eA \u003ci\u003eRefinery29\u003c\/i\u003e Editors' Pick\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eANNE HELEN PETERSEN\u003c\/b\u003e received her PhD in media studies from the University of Texas, where she studied the industrial history of the gossip industry.
