Book Description
‘JUST IMAGINE IF WE, THE NORMAL GIRLS, STOOD UNITED AS AN ENORMOUS, HYSTERICAL AND PROUD ARMY. WE WOULD BE UNSTOPPABLE.’ ‘A fresh, modern take on feminism and life from one of the most compelling voices of her generation’ JANE MOORE ‘A stirring call to action’ KATIE SPICER Written with gumption, fearlessness and sharp wit, Can I Speak to Someone in Charge? is a window into the ridiculous ideologies and the absurd expectations that shape the lives of modern women. In a series of open letters, Emily Clarkson addresses all manner of subjects, from body hair to Facebook friends to the perils of wearing Lycra. She unpicks the validity of notions such as ‘the thigh gap’; questions the quotidian scrutiny by the media; ponders the etymology of the term ‘plus size’ and considers our unshakeable obsession with dieting, while wondering why some of us are still crying in changing rooms. Full of vital life lessons, outrageous confessions and poignant reflections, Can I Speak to Someone in Charge? is a love letter to women everywhere; reminding us that being strong, being kind and being yourself is really what ‘normal’ should be. ‘Being asked to write a book was probably the best thing that’s happened to me – up until that point I was gravely concerned that my mum was the only person reading my blog. I hope this book will speak to a range of women, and men actually, I hope it will make people laugh, but more importantly I hope it will open people's eyes to the fact that we've got a lot to do if we want to make growing up in a good and kind world a possibility for our daughters.’ Emily Clarkson

Book Description
Jane hasn’t left Canada since her honeymoon thirty-five years ago. Now she is fifty-six, her husband has left her for a younger woman, and she is on her way to Cuba to try to “get her groove back,” as her friend Mavis put it. That is, if she ever had a groove to begin with. But when a mysterious package gets planted in Jane’s purse at the airport, she finds herself at the centre of a shady exchange between a mysterious (and very sweaty) Canadian man and some unsavoury Russian agents. Unsure of who around her she can trust, Jane does her best to figure her way out of a dangerous situation—using skills learned from her favourite fictional heroine and her own surprising knack for intrigue. And maybe she just might enjoy her beach vacation while she’s at it. In between car chases and building sandcastles with a handsome widower and his three charming children, Jane has the opportunity to think about her life going forward. Many of her dreams fell to the wayside decades ago when she became Mrs. Larry Brown. Who is she now? Is she Janie Monroe, the woman she was before she got married? Is she Jane Fonda, Jane Russell, Jane Valdez? As her circumstances become more dire, Jane must ultimately decide what kind of woman she wants to be: one who sits back and lets other people push her around, or the heroine of her own life story.
