In <i>The Witches Are Coming<\/i>, firebrand author of the <i>New York Times<\/i> bestselling memoir and now critically acclaimed Hulu TV series <i>Shrill<\/i>, Lindy West, turns that refrain on its head. You think this is a witch hunt? Fine. You\u2019ve got one.<\/p>\n<p>In a laugh-out-loud, incisive cultural critique, West extolls the world-changing magic of truth, urging readers to reckon with dark lies in the heart of the American mythos, and unpacking the complicated, and sometimes tragic, politics of not being a white man in the twenty-first century. She tracks the misogyny and propaganda hidden (or not so hidden) in the media she and her peers devoured growing up, a buffet of distortions, delusions, prejudice, and outright bullsh*t that has allowed white male mediocrity to maintain a death grip on American culture and politics-and that delivered us to this precarious, disorienting moment in history.<\/p>\n<p>West writes, \u201cWe were just a hair\u2019s breadth from electing America\u2019s first female president to succeed America\u2019s first black president. We weren\u2019t done, but we were doing it. And then, true to form\u2014like the Balrog\u2019s whip catching Gandalf by his little gray bootie, like the husband in a Lifetime movie hissing, \u2018If I can\u2019t have you, no one can\u2019\u2014white American voters shoved an incompetent, racist con man into the White House.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We cannot understand how we got here-how the land of the free became Trump\u2019s America\u2014without examining the chasm between who we are and who we think we are, without fact\u2014checking the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves and each other. The truth can transform us, there is witchcraft in it. Lindy West turns on the light.. First published November 5, 2019. Original format: Hardcover.
