Edited by author, actress, and activist Amber Tamblyn, Listening in the Dark (Park Row) is an anthology on women’s intuition, with essays by Amy Poehler, Samantha Irby, Jia Tolentino, Jessica Valenti, US Poet Laureate Ada Limón, America Ferrera, Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley, and others. Have you ever had a feeling about something that you just couldn’t explain? Something that was telling you in your gut what decision to make, which direction to go in, or what to believe. Most women are taught from an early age to ignore their intuition in favor of making logical, evidence-based decisions. But what if that small voice or deeper knowing was your greatest power? In a time when women are revolutionizing politics, entertainment, healthcare, and other industries, it’s critical to reclaim intuition as a vital and sustainable tool. Listening in the Dark is a compilation of some of the most striking women visionaries in literature, science, art, education, medicine, and politics, sharing their insights and reflections on learning how to follow their own gut reactions in pivotal, crossroad moments. Filled with deeply personal and revelatory stories by some of today’s greatest minds, Listening in the Dark will empower readers to reconnect with their intuition as a precious resource in becoming their best selves. Tamblyn will be joined in conversation by Listening in the Dark contributors Lidia Yuknavitch, Dr. Mindy Nettifee, and Dr. Nicole Apelian.
