About this Book:
Jennifer Weiner sums up this book perfectly when she says “Know My Name,” by Chanel Miller, the young woman whom Brock Turner, the so-called Stanford Swimmer, assaulted in 2015, is one of the rescued, a memoir by a writer who dived down into the darkness, pulled herself up and out and laid her story on the sand, still dripping, with its sharp edges intact” (The New York Times).
Why this book is a Must Read
When writer and artist Chanel Miller was assaulted, a sexist narrative prevailed in court and in media, which consoled the perpetrator, Brock Turner. He was centred as a victim, with the focus being how tarnished his future would now be. Chanel reclaims this narrative, and spotlights what it means to go through trauma while on a global stage, to grieve, and how to heal in this beatifically written memoir.
