Punk legend Kathleen Hanna reclaims her narrative in “Rebel Girl”
In her self-narrated memoir, the musician dives into art, trauma, feminism, riot grrrl, and the road to a revolutionary career.
At the heart of every memoir is a sense of shared humanity, of those experiences and emotions that bond and define us. Sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes hilarious, but always vulnerable and compelling, these are the stories that foster connection. In It’s Personal, our monthly memoir newsletter, you’ll hear more about the latest in bios and memoirs and the listens that have been inspiring us—including fascinating editorial features and author interviews. —Alanna M.
