Gina Gershon: AlphaPussy, Gebunden

Klappentext

FROM A WAYWARD CALIFORNIA GIRL growing up in the heart of the pornborn San Fernando Valley, Gina Gershon found herself on a journey that has been anything but traditional. Along the way, she had to learn how to spot the toxic types--in both her personal life and her career--and figure out how to dodge, outsmart, or hustle her way through shady characters and sketchy situations, all the while fighting to protect her autonomy as a woman and as an actress.

AlphaPussy is a collection of true stories about experience, resilience, and the messy art of figuring it out as you go. They include sometimes strange encounters with such personalities as Paul Verhoeven, Tom Cruise, Sharon Stone, Prince, Bob Dylan, Sylvester Stallone, David Mamet, Bob Fosse, and so many others. Often hilarious, usually cautionary, and almost always wrapped in absurdity, Gershon's tales examine the bad decisions, awkward moments, and cringe-worthy interactions that somehow gave rise to survival skills.

In a world full of bullies, predators, and people trying to tell her who she was, or who she should be, it was crucial for Gershon to become an AlphaPussy: a woman who navigates through this perilous jungle of a world with personal agency and responsibility.
