This is Not a Book About Benedict Cumberbatch

The Joy of Loving Something — Anything — Like Your Life Depends on It
Book • 2022
This book is not just about Benedict Cumberbatch; it's a deeper exploration of women's passions and desires after adolescence.

Carvan discusses how societal expectations can squeeze out the space for joy in women's lives and argues for the importance of loving things wholeheartedly, even if they seem frivolous.

The book is a mix of personal memoir, feminist commentary, and a call to action to find and embrace one's passions without shame.
