32. Ageist Sexism - Kathy Lette

Kathy Lette is the author of 17 novels, THE woman about town in London and one of the pioneering voices of contemporary feminism. She is well known for her one-liners, wise cracks and witticism and is as close to being the 21st century's Dorothy Parker as anyone else I know.

She wrote her first book, Puberty Blues, when she was 17. The book addresses the sexism in teenage culture in 1970s Australia. Her most recent book, Revenge Club, addresses the sexism older women face and has been called 'erotic fan fiction for the peri-menopausal'.

Kathy was educated in the school of life and says the only examination she's ever passed is her cervical smear test.

The Cluster F Theory Podcast
To many of us the world, our very planet, appears to be coming apart. How can we put it back together again (and should we)? What do we salvage and what do we throw away? What goes where and why?
Each episode we speak to a philosopher, critical theorist, scientist, artist, writer or thinker about their take on the absolute 'cluster f' that’s happening around us. We don't promise to make you happier, more mindful or fitter, but you will spend some time thinking about something other than yourself.
