A practical guide to ditching overwhelm and making progress in all the areas of life that matter most - in only 15 minutes a day.
Audrey Thomasová je známá pro svůj pronikavý pohled na ženský život a často se snaží poukázat na propast mezi muži a ženami a na propojení mezi ženami a jejich těly. Její styl se vyznačuje hravým zacházením se slovy, využívá slovní hříčky, etymologie a dvojsmysly, aby zdůraznila ironii a nejednoznačnost jazyka. Tato pozornost k jazyku odhaluje samotný proces psaní a složitost mezilidské komunikace. Thomasová své texty obohacuje o bohaté literární odkazy, od Shakespeara po Bibli.
