Best Young Woman Job Book
Emma Healey
Emma Healey just wants to be a writer, but that’s more a journey than a job, and the journey isn’t free. Through the stories of several very odd jobs, each related to—but also achingly far from—the job she really wants, poet and essayist Emma creates a unique snapshot of the gig economy that is also a timeless meditation on identity, value, and language.
For a writer trying to pay the bills, life can be a work in progress.
