For readers of Fair Play by Eve Rodsky and Burnout by Emily Nagoski and Amelia Nagoski, EMOTIONAL LABOR is a scathing, deeply-researched foray into the unequal burden some members of our society are forced to take on. Reporting on stories from family caregivers, minority domestic workers, homemakers, women climbing the corporate ladder, sex workers, waitresses, and more, Rose delves into the nuances of why so many perform the task of emotional labor, and how it keeps our economy afloat. Offering a never-before-seen look into the wide range of unseen and undervalued work, Rose examines how unsustainable the current system is and builds a foundation for radical change by making the invisible visible.
