      My life, as you will read, has taken me from one cult to another. BRAVE is the story of how I fought my way out of these cults and reclaimed my life. I want to help you do the same. -Rose McGowan. A revealing memoir and empowering manifesto - A voice for generations. Rose McGowan was born in one cult and came of age in another, more visible cult: Hollywood. In a strange world where she was continually on display, stardom soon became a personal nightmare of constant exposure and sexualization. Rose escaped into the world of her mind, something she had done as a child, and into high-profile relationships. Every detail of her personal life became public, and the realities of an inherently sexist industry emerged with every script, role, public appearance, and magazine cover. The Hollywood machine packaged her as a sexualized bombshell, hijacking her image and identity and marketing them for profit. Hollywood expected Rose to be silent and cooperative and to stay the path. Instead, she rebelled and asserted her true identity and voice. She reemerged unscripted, courageous, victorious, angry, smart, fierce, unapologetic, controversial, and real as f*ck. BRAVE is her raw, honest, and poignant memoir/manifesto-a no- holds-barred, pull-no-punches account of the rise of a millennial icon, fearless activist, and unstoppable force for change who is determined to expose the truth about the entertainment industry, dismantle the concept of fame, shine a light on a multibillion-dollar business built on systemic misogyny, and empower people everywhere to wake up and be BRAVE.

    • MUTIG sein bedeutet, ein Leben ohne Skript zu führen: angstfrei, siegesgewiss, wütend und real. Dieses ehrliche Enthüllungsbuch einer Ikone der Millennium-Generation, einer furchtlosen Aktivistin, deckt die Missstände der Unterhaltungsindustrie auf und hinterfragt gängige Klischees von Ruhm und Erfolg. Rose McGowan bringt Licht in die dunklen Ecken Hollywoods, das auf Sexismus aufgebaut ist, und ermutigt Menschen weltweit, aufzuwachen und MUTIG zu sein. Sie erzählt von ihrem Weg durch verschiedene Sekten, bis sie in die größte von allen gelangte: Hollywood. In MUTIG beschreibt sie, wie sie sich aus diesen Strukturen befreien und ihr Leben zurückerobern konnte. Das Buch bietet einen tiefen Einblick in #MeToo und wird als historisches Dokument der Gegenwart angesehen. Der konfrontative und unversöhnliche Ton McGowans ist unverfälscht und lässt keinen Raum für Beschönigungen. Es ist gut, dass keiner versucht hat, ihre rohe Sprache zu zügeln oder zu verändern. MUTIG will keine schöne Literatur sein, sondern die Wahrheit ungeschönt präsentieren. Ihre Autobiografie trägt den Titel, wie sie ist: Mutig!
