Debbie talks with writer Kate Bolick about society's historically skeptical view of a single woman. "I think … it's a threat to the societal order to have a woman by herself."
Kate's first book, the best-selling Spinster: Making a Life of One’s Own, was a New York Times Notable Book of 2015. A contributing editor for The Atlantic, Bolick is also a freelance writer for The New York Times, Slate, and Vogue, among other publications, and host of “Touchstones at The Mount,” an annual literary interview series at Edith Wharton’s country estate, in Lenox, Massachusetts. Previously, she was executive editor of Domino, and a columnist for The Boston Globe Ideas Section. She lives in Brooklyn, New York.
