Marina Benjamin On The Unsung, Unseen, Undone Work Of Women

Acclaimed London-based writer Marina Benjamin speaks in-depth about her latest memoir, A Little Give: the unsung, unseen, undone work of women (Scribe). Marina talks about these interlinked essays and verse, in which she examines in her own life the tasks once termed, ‘women’s work’. From cooking and cleaning to caring for an ageing relative, Marina shows this kind of unsung and invisible caring work is a site of paradox and conflict, but also of solace and meaning. Marina's previous books include, Insomnia, The Middlepause, Rocket Dreams, and Last Days in Babylon. She is senior editor of Aeon Magazine.
