The Problem with Everything: My Journey Through the New Culture Wars

Meghan Daum

A NEW YORK TIMES 100 NOTABLE BOOKS OF 2019 SELECTION

…[A]ffectingly personal, achingly earnest, and something close to necessary. -Vogue

Personal, convincing, unflinching. -Tablet

From an author who’s been called one of the most emotionally exacting, mercilessly candid, deeply funny, and intellectually rigorous writers of our time (Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild) comes a seminal book that reaches surprising truths about feminism, the Trump era, and the Resistance movement. You won’t be able to stop thinking and talking about it.

In this gripping work, Meghan examines our country’s most intractable problems with clear-eyed honesty instead of exaggerated outrage. With passion, humor, and personal reflection, she tries to make sense of the current landscape-from Donald Trump’s presidency to the #MeToo movement and beyond. In the process, she wades into the waters of identity politics and intersectionality, thinks deeply about campus politics and notions of personal resilience, and tests a theory about the divide between Gen Xers and millennials.

This signature work may well be the first book to capture the essence of this era in all its nuances and contradictions. No matter where you stand on its issues, this book will strike a chord.
