This just felt like the end of a trilogy, says Kathleen Hanna of her memoir, Rebel Girl, piecing together her life as a musician with fond memories and anecdotes from her career.
Rebel Girl is not just a rock history book. It's more a coming-of-age story, a powerful reflection on Hanna's journey in feminist punk bands Bikini Kill, Le Tigre, and The Julie Ruin, filled with anecdotes of Kurt Cobain, Joan Jett, and Kim Gordon.
Hanna's style in Rebel Girl is vivid, forthright, and humorous, shedding light on pain and violence she has faced, aiming to close that chapter beautifully for a fresh start.
Rebel Girl captures the ongoing process of coming of age through epiphanies, from discovering a love for performing to building a grassroots feminist movement in riot grrrl, with references to influential figures like Kathy Acker, Joan Jett, and Kim Gordon.
