Hardback. Condizione: Good. *NEW YORK TIMES EDITOR'S CHOICE *  *As heard on FRESH AIR and THIS AMERICAN LIFE* "A hero for these times.Read her story and let it move you, infuriate you, and inspire you."--Chelsea Handler"A unique and urgent story of what happened to a young woman who spoke out against the power of the state."--Piper Kerman, author ofOrange Is the New Black"This personable and wide-ranging memoir lets [Winner] define herself on her own terms, offering an expressive, irreverent tour of America from the halls of power to cramped prison cells."--New York TimesThe memoir of a patriot.Reality Winner was a twenty-five-year-old translator for the NSA when she read a classified document revealing what she assumed would make headlines during a time of unprecedented leaking: After blatant lies by the Trump administration and public silence by the NSA, there had in fact been foreign interference in the 2016 US election.
