So You've Been Publicly Shamed
(Autor) Jon RonsonJon Ronson's captivating and brilliant exploration of one of our world's most underappreciated forces: shame. A great renaissance of public shaming is sweeping our land. Through social media, justice has been democratized and the silent majority are getting a voice. But are we using our voice for good? Instead we are mercilessly finding people's faults and defining the boundaries of normality by ruining the lives of those who position themselves outside it. We are using shame as a form of social control. In this prescient, unnerving yet often hilarious book, Jon Ronson meets the victims of modern public shamings and, in doing so, plunges us deep into the heart of a very modern terror: the terror of being found out. Full of eye-opening truths about the escalating war on human flaws - and the very scary part we all play in it - this is Jon Ronson at his very best. A Sunday Times Book of the Year when first published, So You've Been Publicly Shamed is now part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literature.
