For these crimes, Liz Phair was run out of her hometown of Chicago, enduring a flame war perpetrated by writers who accused her of being boring, inauthentic, and even a poor musician. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith \u003ci\u003eExile in Guyville\u003c\/i\u003e, Phair spoke for all the girls who loved the world of indie rock but felt deeply unwelcome there. Like all great works of art, \u003ci\u003eExile\u003c\/i\u003e was a harbinger of the shape of things to come: Phair may have undermined the male ego, but she also unleashed a new female one. For the sake of all the female artists who have benefited from her work—from Sleater-Kinney to Lana Del Rey and back again—it's high time we go back to Guyville.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing Plc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54239866487128,"sku":"9781441162571","price":16.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781441162571.jpg?v=1766486718","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/liz-phairs-exile-in-guyville","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
