Poser My Life in Twenty-three Yoga Poses
In this witty and candid memoir, Claire Dederer explores the intersection of yoga and the messy reality of daily life. Initially seeking yoga as a cure for a back injury, Dederer soon finds herself grappling with the competitive perfectionism of contemporary motherhood and the pressures of being a 'good' woman. Structuring her narrative around twenty-three specific yoga poses, she reflects on her bohemian upbringing, her parents' divorce, and her own marriage and parenting journey. 'Poser' is a deeply personal look at the search for balance and authenticity in a world obsessed with self-improvement, offering a funny and relatable perspective on what it means to truly inhabit one's own body and life.
