From the shock of Donald Trump's election and the victories of the far right to online harassment and the transgender rights movement this darkly humorous collection is an unflinching look at the definitive issues of our age.Penny is lyrical and passionate in her desire to confront injustice; she writes at the raw edge of the zeitgeist at a time when it has never been more vital to challenge social norms.
