| About Elizabeth |
|
**Press F11 for Best View**
Elizabeth Wurtzel made a name for herself on the journalism circuit by being a profound and different writer. Her articles and ramblings have been featured in Rolling Stone, Mademmoiselle, Seventeen, Mirabella, and the Oxford American. She has been compared to Sylvia Plath, Anne Sexton and is even considered the Hunter S. Thompson of the female literary and drug culture journalism. In 1993? she released the surprisingly personal memoir Prozac Nation and astounded the world by reaching the best sellers list immediately. Prozac Nation shocked everyone by presenting a very real chronicle of her elongated battle against depression, and the advise and medications she was given as a result. Elizabeth had arrived and as much as "Wurtzelites" loved her, her critics crucified her for being "a bitch, a spoiled brat, and a selfish attention hungry whiner." Since her arrival Elizabeth has written several more books including Bitch, Radical Sanity(published also under the title The Bitch Rules) and her second memoir, the highly controversial More, Now, Again.
