Resumen del Editor
Buying into the dream that education is the road out of poverty, a teen mom takes a chance on bettering herself, gets on welfare rolls, and talks her way into college. But once she's there, phallocratic narratives permeate every subject, and creative writing professors depend heavily on Freytag's pyramid to analyze life. So Ariel turns to a rich subcultural canon of resistance and failure, populated by writers like Audre Lorde, Adrienne Rich, Gloria Anzaldua, Tillie Olsen, and Kathy Acker. Wryly riffing on feminist literary tropes, We Were Witches documents the survival of a demonized single mother. She's beset by custody disputes, homophobia, and America's ever-present obsession with shaming strange women into passive citizenship. But even as the narrator struggles to graduate - often the triumphant climax of a dramatic plot - a question uncomfortably lingers. If you're dealing with precarious parenthood, queer identity, and debt, what is the true narrative shape of your experience? Finalist for the Lambda Literary Award.

Historia
At age 39, Ariel Gore has everything she’s always wanted: a successful writing career, a long-term partnership, a beautiful if tiny home, a daughter in college and a son in preschool. But life’s happy endings don’t always last. If it’s not one thing, after all, it’s your mother. Her name is Eve. Her epic temper tantrums have already gotten her banned from three cab companies in Portland. And she’s here to announce that she’s dying.

Historia
One summer day, Margaux Fragoso meets Peter Curran at the neighborhood swimming pool, and they begin to play. She is seven; he is 51. When Peter invites her and her mother to his house, the little girl finds a child’s paradise of exotic pets and an elaborate backyard garden. Her mother, beset by mental illness and overwhelmed by caring for Margaux, is grateful for the attention Peter lavishes on her, and he creates an imaginative universe for her, much as Lewis Carroll did for his real-life Alice.

Father Greg Lockwood is unlike any Catholic priest you have ever met - a man who lounges in boxer shorts, who loves action movies, and whose constant jamming on the guitar reverberates "like a whole band dying in a plane crash in 1972". His daughter is an irreverent poet who long ago left the church's country. When an unexpected crisis leads her and her husband to move back into her parents' rectory, their two worlds collide.

The world as we know it is ending. Evolution has reversed itself, affecting every living creature on earth. Science cannot stop the world from running backward, as woman after woman gives birth to infants that appear to be primitive species of humans. Thirty-two-year-old Cedar Hawk Songmaker, adopted daughter of a pair of big-hearted, open-minded Minneapolis liberals, is as disturbed and uncertain as the rest of America around her. But for Cedar, this change is profound and deeply personal. She is four months pregnant.

Historia
Margo is not like other girls. She lives in a derelict neighborhood called the Bone, in a cursed house, with her cursed mother, who hasn't spoken to her in over two years. She lives her days feeling invisible. It's not until she develops a friendship with her wheelchair-bound neighbor, Judah Grant, that things begin to change. When a neighborhood girl, seven-year-old Neveah Anthony, goes missing, Judah sets out to help Margo uncover what happened to her. What Margo finds changes her, and with a new perspective on life she's determined to find evil and punish it.

Lit follows Mary Karr's descent into the inferno of alcoholism and madness - and her astonishing resurrection. Karr's longing for a solid family seems secure when her marriage to a handsome, Shakespeare-quoting poet produces a son they adore. But she can't outrun her apocalyptic past. She drinks herself into the same numbness that nearly devoured her charismatic but troubled mother, reaching the brink of suicide. A hair-raising stint in "The Mental Marriott" awakens her to the possibility of joy, and leads her to an unlikely faith.

In Her Body and Other Parties, Carmen Maria Machado blithely demolishes the arbitrary borders between psychological realism and science fiction, comedy and horror, fantasy and fabulism. While her work has earned her comparisons to Karen Russell and Kelly Link, she has a voice that is all her own. In this electric and provocative debut, Machado bends genre to shape startling narratives that map the realities of women's lives and the violence visited upon their bodies.

One spring night in 1998, the beautiful Cressida Strauss plunges from a fourth-floor balcony at the Lycée Internationale Suisse with catastrophic consequences. Loath to draw negative publicity to the school, a bastion of European wealth and glamour, officials quickly dismiss the incident as an accident, but questions remain. Was it a suicide attempt? Or was Cressida pushed? It was no secret that she had a selfish streak and had earned as many enemies as allies in her tenure at the school.

Very relatable memoir for the modern woman
This was a delightful memoir of a woman who lived to the beat of her own drum. It chronicles teenage pregnancy, motherhood as a single woman, struggling to push through poverty, and living against the grain.

If I could give it more than five stars I would!
Truly stellar storytelling and lovely narration. Deep, introspective, and so very real... this book nailed life and parenthood from the birth-givers perspective. It spoke my truth. Never has fiction felt so personal or so raw, and the writers named were the who's who of feminist poetry... all my favorites from University! I can't wait to share this book with my wife!

A poignant reminder, perfect timing
What an incredible story. A reminder of what it means to be an artist, a woman, a mother - in the face of society dictating those definitions. It’s often a slow, difficult path with a lot of doubt, but when you get through the hardest parts - you can see it made you and your art. I appreciate that the author is the narrator, it feels more personal and real.

Slap me alive
This is eye opening in many aspects. How can this even be real to be called a welfare sl*t only for raising a child on your own like isn’t that hard enough? Also all the facts that were outlined about violence against women on many levels, it chilled my blood and enfuriated me at the same time. The story is also engaging, so real, and very well written. I loved to hear it read by the author.

written for writers, and educating non-writers
I am not a writer, but this is a book has so many stories within this story, however delivered in a manner that ties up so well, and allowed me to be transported right to the moments Ariel described. Much like life, it needn't always make sense to those outside of you. When it does, its magic. That's how I felt while listening to this. There are many writers and poets Ariel mentioned that I feel I need to learn about, understand their style and philosophy, and their personal stories too. I'm going to be circling back to this book often I feel.
I feel educationally more rich having heard this book, I feel my world has gotten a bit bigger, with additions of all these powerful womens narratives along with Ariel's.

Captivating
I love how Ms. Gore circled back to previous stories, literary quotes, fairy tales, and spells to illustrate her life and growing sense of self. I was blown away by several of the conclusions she drew from the various research lines she studied, then synthesised.
This was not an easy book to listen to: it was brutally, heart- breakingly honest. It was, however, an important book. In addition to recommending it to several of my friends, I also plan on picking up a physical copy. This has become an increasingly rare occurrence for me, as I recently donated, sold, or gave away 10 boxes of books, and Kindlized as many as I could. But a physical copy sounds right: I want to dog-ear the pages, put colorful flags to mark things, and write all over this book.
Thank you, Ms. Gore, for your everyday courage to just keep living, trying to create your best life.

an unique gem
the writer uses poetic language and magic realism to tell the story of day to day survival as a poor single mother. she finds her way with the help of many women whether they be face to face or through books. her life is not unique but she tells stories in a way no one else does. i loved this book and was sad it had to end.
