'I am surrounded by women who are emblems of modern feminism and
#Girlboss culture. These same women admit to me in private that the
hardest part of the day is getting dressed, that they Facetune
their photos, obsess over diets, break down over their appearance
and spend thousands on invasive treatments.' We now live in a new
age of beauty. With advancements in cosmetic surgery, accessible
tweakments, augmented reality face filters, photo editing apps, and
exposure to more images than we were ever meant to see, we have the
ability to craft ourselves in whichever way we please. We pinch,
pull, squeeze, tweeze, smooth and slice ourselves beyond
recognition. But is modern beauty culture truly empowering? Are we
really in control? In every era there is a beauty ideal. Yet,
today, the pressure to attain and retain the perfect body is
compounded by a need to present this perfect image across multiple
media channels, to exist in constant comparison to curated feeds
and the version of your life that you show online. In an age of
influencers, mass circulation of images and the increasing
commodification of the self, modern beauty culture is all-consuming
and unavoidable, touching the lives of every young woman in the
country. From Love Island to lip filler, blackfishing to the beauty
tax, Ellen Atlanta reconfigures our understanding of women's
relationship with beauty culture to account for the digital age.
Providing a fascinating account of the realities young women face
under a dominant industry, Pixel Flesh unmasks the absurdities of
the dystopia we find ourselves living in, acting as a rallying cry
and a refusal to suffer in silence, forming a collective memoir of
what it feels like to exist as a woman today.

Religious life is vitally necessary to the Catholic church today.
But it will exist in new and varied forms which speak to the
spiritual hungers of different societies, ethnic cultures, and
generations. God’s Call Is Everywhere is the first comparative
analysis of research in six countries investigating women who have
entered vowed religious life in Catholicism in the twenty-first
century. The data include survey responses from institute leaders,
formation directors, and the women themselves, conducted in the
United States, Canada, Australia, and France, along with focus
groups and interviews in Ireland, the United Kingdom, and France.
Through a careful summary of these studies and comparing
differences, readers of this book will have a better understanding
of the hopes and concerns of those discerning a vocation to
religious life and learn how to move forward in the future. Â
God’s Call Is Everywhere includes six major points of comparison:
Demographic characteristics of the women entering religious life
and their personal and familial backgrounds What attracted them to
religious life and to their specific religious institute What they
find most satisfying and most challenging about religious life
Their hopes and concerns for the future Experiences and programs
that were helpful in their vocational discernment Aspects of the
larger society, of the Church, and of the religious institutes
which make vocational discernment difficult for women today The
analysis is followed by six reflective essays, two of which discuss
the implications of the findings for future vocational discernment
programs and four of which compare the findings to religious life
in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
