For the 253rd episode of Private Parts Unknown, the tables are turned—host Courtney Kocak is interviewed by returning guest and Spent author Antonia Crane about her debut memoir Girl Gone Wild on its pub date! Girl Gone Wild is an unwittingly feminist coming-of-age about ambition, delusion, sex, shame, and misogyny—from growing up in small-town Minnesota to chasing her Hollywood dreams… including a stint selling T-shirts on the Girls Gone Wild tour. We go behind the scenes of the book’s 15-year journey from first essay to publication and its evolution. We also talk about sex work, addiction, abusive relationships, “dark teachers,” the writers who shaped Courtney’s voice, the challenge of fact-checking memory, and why memoir is about emotional truth more than perfect accuracy.
