Rebecca Traister

Salon.com writer Rebecca Traister will be reading from her highly praised book, Big Girls Don’t Cry: The Election That Changed Everything For American Women, tonight at Bluestocking Bookstore. Traister covered the 2008 election season for Salon from a feminist perspective. From the New York Times review: …a passionate, visionary and very personal account of the cultural ferment that accompanied the election of ’08…[Traister] adroitly juggles a galaxy of new- and old-media sources. She draws her inferences from interviews, newspapers, magazines, news programs, “Saturday Night Live” and Comedy Central political shows…as well as from Current TV clips and stroppy Web sites… Free // 7p // 172 Allen Street.
