Winner of the 2021 PEN/Diamonstein-Spielvogel Award for the Art of the Essay, HAD I KNOWN contains the most provocative, incendiary, and career-making pieces by bestselling author, essayist, political activist, and veteran muckraker Barbara Ehrenreich ( The New Yorker ).

A self-proclaimed myth buster by trade, Barbara Ehrenreich has covered an extensive range of topics as a journalist and political activist, and is unafraid to dive into intellectual waters that others deem too murky.

Now, Had I Known gathers the articles and excerpts from a long-ranging career that most highlight Ehrenreich's brilliance, social consciousness, and wry wit.

From Ehrenreich's award-winning article Welcome to Cancerland, published shortly after she was diagnosed with breast cancer, to her groundbreaking undercover investigative journalism in Nickel and Dimed , to her exploration of death and mortality in the New York Times bestseller, Natural Causes , Barbara Ehrenreich has been writing radical, thought-provoking, and worldview-altering pieces for over four decades.

Her reviews have appeared in the New York Times Book Review , the Washington Post , the Atlantic Monthly , and the Los Angeles Times Book Review , among others, while her essays, op-eds and feature articles have appeared in the New York Times , Harper's Magazine , the New York Times Magazine , Time , the Wall Street Journal , and many more.

Had I Known pulls from the vast and varied collection of one of our country's most incisive thinkers to create one must-have volume.
