“What A Girl Wants” with Roxy Bourdillon

Queer Lit
Dela

If you want to know what Roxy wants, this episode is a great place to start. Diva’s fabulous editor in chief joins us for a chat about her lovely memoir What A Girl Wants, which is just as heartwarming, insightful and fun as the author herself. Roxy and I speak about femme invisibility, queer timelines, body image and lesbian breakups. Not one to be missed.

Questions you should be able to respond to after listening:

  1.      Roxy’s book regularly employs direct address of the reader. What does Roxy say about this? Why was this formal feature important for writing this book?
  2.      Roxy and I speak about queered timelines. What do we suggest and what do you think about this topic?
  3.      How does Roxy speak about approaching chronology and structure in memoir?
