A dramatisation of Caitlin Moran’s bestseller, the book that brought feminism in to the mainstream again.

Modified and narrated by Caitlin Moran, this brand new radio adaptation intersperses dramatised scenes from Moran’s life (from her teen years inside a congested council house in Wolverhampton, to aiming like a music journalist, to getting married and having children) with her applying for grants subjects that range from the necessity of big knickers, to the experience of giving birth and having an abortion.

Provocative, controversial and incredibly funny – this book is the gateway medication towards the feminist resurgence.
