Περιγραφή για You Didn't Hear This From Me: Notes on the Art of Gossip Kelsey McKinney Viking

A deliciously insightful exploration of why we are so obsessed with gossip, and what it can tell us about humans and their search for truth.“Can you keep a secret?” It’s harder than it seems – after all, it’s only human to thirst after the juicy updates, jaw-dropping stories, and idle chatter that we typically collect over drinks with friends.No one knows this better than journalist Kelsey McKinney, whose Normal Gossip podcast has accrued a listenership of millions. In YOU DIDN\'T HEAR THIS FROM ME, McKinney explores the murkiness of everyday storytelling.What even is gossip, and why is it considered a sin? Why are we obsessed with the details of celebrity drama and tabloid headlines? How do we use and abuse gossip – and why do we want to do it at all?McKinney dives deep into a range of cultural cornerstones – from the Epic of Gilgamesh as told by chatbots, to the scandalous betrayals in The Traitors – and captures the heart of gossiping: how enchanting and fun it can be to lean over and whisper something a little salacious into your friend’s ear.With wit and honesty, McKinney unmasks what we\'re actually searching for when we demand to know the truth – and how much the truth really matters in the first place.
