Coup de coeur
(Gender Studies), by Niamh
I can genuinely say that this pocket-sized treasure changed my life for the better. Reflecting on female friendships through the lens of pop culture and literature, Anahit Behrooz calls into question the societal prioritization of romantic and familial relationships over the friendships that often raise and rally us. She examines the impact of female friendship in giving us comfort, structure, confidence, and endless care. Focusing on the power and strength of platonic female intimacy, this book proves that a life spent with friends is one rich in love. It allowed me to explore and appreciate my friendships on a deeper level than ever before, and opened my eyes to the power of the community that surrounds me. An essential item for your summer girls trip!
BFFs examines female friendship as a site of radical intimacy, as told through the cultural touchstones around us. From Elena Ferrante to Booksmart, Little Women to Insecure, and beyond, the book considers how female friendships can offer a more expansive and emancipatory understanding of female intimacy.
