Rage Becomes Her: The Power of Women’s Anger by Soraya Chemaly
Over 700 5-Star Reviews!
Rage Becomes Her is an “utterly eye-opening” (Bustle) exploration of female anger—and why it may be one of women’s most powerful tools.
Women are taught to swallow their rage, to suppress it until it turns inward, corroding both body and mind. Yet there are countless, legitimate reasons for women to be angry—from overt, horrifying acts of misogyny to the relentless drip of everyday sexism that reinforces damaging gender norms.
In Rage Becomes Her, Soraya Chemaly argues that women’s anger is not only justified—it is essential. Again and again, women are encouraged to resist their rage or punished for expressing it. But how many transformative achievements would never have existed without the anger that sparked them?
Approached with intention, anger becomes a vital instrument: a radar for injustice and a catalyst for change. The cultural belittlement of women’s anger, Chemaly shows, is a powerful means of limiting and controlling women’s power—one that can no longer be tolerated.
“A work of great spirit and verve” (Time), Rage Becomes Her is a validating, energizing read that will change how you understand anger—and how you move through the world.
