Sophie Passmann hat mit "Pick me Girls" nicht nur ihr persönlichstes Buch geschrieben, sondern auch eine kluge Auseinandersetzung mit dem männlichen Blick.

Warum wir alle "pick me girls" sind und welche Unmöglichkeiten Sophie Passmann und höchstwahrscheinlich auch jede andere Frau im Laufe ihres Lebens ertragen muss, das seziert Sophie Passmann so scharf und klug wie keine andere.

What exactly are the weird and the eerie? In this new essay, Mark Fisher argues that some of the most haunting and anomalous fiction of the 20th century belongs to these two modes. The weird and the eerie are closely related but distinct modes, each possessing its own distinct properties. Both have often been associated with horror, yet this emphasis overlooks the aching fascination that such texts can exercise.
