Ubud Writers & Readers Festival — Megan K. Stack: Women’s Work

Women employing women, mothers employing mothers: hiring domestic help has long been the solution for mothers seeking work/family balance. Former war journalist and new mother Megan K. Stack examines class, privilege and the apportioning of labour when faced with the inequalities of parenthood, and reflects on how her life becomes intertwined with those of the women who work for her.

Megan K. Stack is the author of Every Man in This Village Is a Liar, which was a finalist for America’s 2010 National Book Award and an Australian bestseller. She reported on war for the Los Angeles Times from dozens of countries, and was most recently Moscow bureau chief. She was a finalist for the 2007 Pulitzer Prize in international reporting. Her latest book is Women’s Work: a personal reckoning with labour, motherhood, and privilege.
