More Description LIVE. LAUGH. LOVE. or
EXIST. SMURK. LURK Julie Houts has cultivated a devoted following as '
Instagram's favourite illustrator' (
Vogue) by lampooning the
conflicting messages and
images women consume and share with the world every day.
A collection of
darkly comic illustrated essays,
Literally Me chronicles the daily exploits of 'slightly antisocial heroines' (
Refinery29) in vivid, excruciatingly funny detail, including:
- The beauty routine of a deranged bride who aspires to be 'truly without flaws' on her wedding day
- What happens when Kylie Jenner has an existential crisis and can no longer 'step out'
- A journey to Coachella by the Four Horsewomen of the Apocalypse
- The true dating confessions of a fembot
- The terrifying description for Alice Staunch's book How to be the Perfect Feminist
Literally Me marks the
launch of a brilliant new social satirist. Julie's
singular voice and beautiful illustrations reveal the truth about the
absurdity of life in the social media age: the line between becoming a total 'Girlboss' and a 21st-century
American Psycho is razor-thin.
