The Better Bombshell: Writers and Artists Redefine the Female Role Model

By Charlotte Austin and Austin

This collaborative grassroots anthology asks writers and artists a simple question: "Who is the better bombshell?" The book addresses a simple void in modern media: the lack of positive, multidimensional female role models. Using their respective genres (nonfiction, fiction, poetry, and screenplay) and mediums (photography, drawing, and painting), writers and artists consider questions such as: "Who do todays young women admire?" "Who do todays men covet?" "What earns our envy and our celebration, our lust and our love?" The last century has seen womens roles change more rapidly than ever before, and the media is showering us with images of modern women--without conscious reflection on what those images mean. The question is simple: "Who is the better bombshell?" The answers might make you laugh. They might make you cry. No matter what, theyre guaranteed to make you think.
