This is an epic interview. Pulled me along, and that’s as someone who is neither a wife nor a mother (though occasionally — suspiciously — I eye both notions)
This was wonderful. Liars is now on my reading list. Could not agree more strongly with 'They love saying that marriage takes work, and all over the world, domestic abuse victims are thinking, ‘wow, I guess this is just the work that I'm supposed to be doing.’ I cannot tell you the time I spent stuck, or beating myself up with the idea that marriage was supposed to be hard work.
Wonderful interview. 💜
Thanks for reading!
Such a great interview. I have been awaiting this novel for months. I can’t wait to dig in.
Cindy! It is 🔥

Loved all of this! I want to share every quote.
Fantastic as always.
Young men are not different.
Sometimes the words they use are different, maybe. They parrot feminist lines, sometimes will publicly support women.
Their actions towards women in their life are the same as the generations of men before them.
I’m a young woman who has been friends with and dated men, and watched my friends be friends with and date men. It isn’t better.
I copy pasted so much of this into a note in my phone so I can go back and re-read the parts that had me nodding along in agreement. Wow.
So many great points here and they're marinating on the BallerinaFarm interview on The Times magazine I read yesterday.
YES. Read that too and can't stop thinking about it.
