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 známa svojim prenikavým pohľadom na ženský život a často sa snaží poukázať na priepasť medzi mužmi a ženami a na spojenie medzi ženami a ich telami. Jej štýl sa vyznačuje hravým zaobchádzaním so slovami, využíva slovné hračky, etymológiu a dvojsmysly, aby zdôraznila iróniu a nejednoznačnosť jazyka. Táto pozornosť k jazyku odhaľuje samotný proces písania a zložitosť medziľudskej komunikácie. Thomasová svoje texty obohacuje o bohaté literárne odkazy, od Shakespeara po Bibliu.
