Description
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
