Scaachi Koul’s first book was a collection of raw, perceptive and hilarious essays reckoning with the issues of race, body image, love, friendship and growing up the daughter of immigrants. When the time came to start writing her next book, Scaachi assumed she’d be updating her story with essays about her elaborate four-day wedding, settling down to domestic bliss and continuing her never-ending arguments with her parents. Instead, the COVID-19 pandemic hit, Scaachi’s marriage fell apart, she lost her job and her mother was diagnosed with cancer. Scaachi employs her biting wit to interrogate her previous belief that fighting is the most effective tool for progress. She examines the fights she’s had all in an attempt to understand when a fight is worth having, and when it's better to walk away.
