Up next, "Thick" by Tressie McMillan Cottom: In her acclaimed collection of eight essays, Tressie McMillan Cottom combines personal experiences with critical analysis on themes like beauty, media, and money. Celebrated for her bold, "thick" presence—embracing complexity over simplicity—she explores societal issues such as racism, misogyny, and survival strategies for black women with insightful and witty prose. Praised by critics and peers like Roxane Gay for her transgressive and brilliant work, McMillan Cottom redefines the personal essay, tackling diverse subjects from pop culture to serious social issues, establishing herself as a leading public intellectual.
