Who is Gwen Taylor?

There is no mistaking the register of a book called The Burnt-Out Bitch. Gwen Taylor writes for a reader well past the point of being soothed, and the title works as a filter: anyone who finds it too much is not the intended audience, and anyone who laughs in recognition almost certainly is.

Our catalogue shelves the work under health and wellbeing as well as personal development, and groups it within The Regulated Woman Series, a name pointing squarely at the book’s concern with getting a depleted system back under control. Bluntness plus regulation is the whole proposition.
