And on, and on.
This internal dialogue formed the basis for a compelling new article she wrote in The Times in the U.K, entitled, "A conversation...

In the book she writes of how, through the pursuit of knowledge, she evolved into a 'new self'. She says: 'You could call this selfhood many things. Transformation. Metamorphosis. Falsity. Betrayal. I call it an education.'

For many, the 80s was a decade that taste didn’t just forget, but totally bypassed. Guardian and Vogue columnist Hadley Freeman does not subscribe to that one bit and is so passionate about 80s American movies that she’s written a book about them.

In this event recorded live at the 2016 Edinburgh International Book Festival, she discusses the book with Lee Randall.
